Trini,

This is also my favourite lead for the cross as it has no ambiguity
and the woman doesn't need to 'interpret' the lead. For this reason, 
I find it works well with beginners. But I know that some women prefer 
a slight body turn and I'd be interested to hear from other experienced 
followers on how they like the cross to be led.
