Description
A tribute to Beatrice Gay aka Big Bea, member of the first generation of Lindy Hoppers and famous follower of “Shorty” George Snowden.
Big Bea was taller than her dance partner and the two became famous for using this height difference at their advantage during performances: one of their signature moves was in fact ending a routine with Big Bea taking Shorty off the dance floor on her back.
Foot measurements directions:
Foot length is more accurately measured when standing directly on a ruler or measuring tape.
Make sure you measure from the furthest back/central part of the heel to the end of the longest toe.
Foot width shall be measured by wrapping a measuring tape around the widest part of your foot, usually where your bunion joint is. Ensure you have your full weight on the foot for accuracy.
You may want to repeat the whole measuring process a few times to confirm your measuring results.
