Description

Stomp the right foot without weight, hop on the left, shuffle the right, step onto the right ball and drop its heel, then flap the left and step onto the right. It is the buck triple time step with a heel added after the step. The weight ends on the right, so the next phrase is the mirror image, starting with a left stomp on count 4. Some teachers add a spank right after the stomp.

Practice Tips

  • Hit the stomp with the whole foot flat. If the heel lands first, it turns into a dig and the opening sound goes thin.
  • Keep the right heel lifted on the step and drop it on its own count so the step and heel don't blur together.
