and
Low tide
(my variation)








 


     A. Opening A.
        R1 hooks down all the
        strings...

        R2 passes over R1, and
        picks up, from the far side
        5f...

        Turn the R palm D,
        toward you, straightning
        R1 and R2.
        R1 and R2 share a loop.
 

  B. Turn the R palm,
       away fom you.
       L2 picks up R12 (upper).
       Release upper R1.

     You have the Opening Z
       
      (All the strings are crossing
       except 1n and upper 2n).

  C. 1 and 345 enter, from
       below, into 2².

  D. 2 enters from above into 5,
       draws toward you 5n, enters
       from above into 1...

       2 picks up 1f and draws it
       through his loop, which
       slip off.
       Release 1.
       1 from below removes 2.
 

       You have a loop on 1,
        one on 5 and two on
        the wrists.
 

  E. R1 and R2 lift the both
       loops of the L wrist over
       the L hand, and put them
       on L1 and L5.
       Do the same with the
       other hand.

   F. 2 enters from above into 5,
        draws toward you 5n,
        enters from above into 1...

       2 picks up 1f
       and draws it through his
       loop, which slips off.
 

       If you want the low tide,

       see at the bottom of this page
      

       For the high tide, continue...

  G. Release 5³. Extend.
       5 picks up 2n.
       Release 2.

      You have three loops
       on 1, and one on 5.

  H. 2 hooks up, the both strings
       that are crossing below the
       figure...
       plunging behind them,
       on each side of the double
       triangle inverse.

   I. Release 1.
       Move the palms,
       alternately, toward you
       and away from you, you
       have the high tide.

              Low tide
 

   G.  345 pass over 5f²
         and push back them
         toward you.

   H. Withdraw slowly 1 from
        his loops.
        1 enters, away from, you
        into his former loops and
        picks up 5f².

    I. Release 5³.
       Move the palms,
       alternately, toward you
       and away from you, you
       have the low tide.
       Arrange if need.
