Description

Flap the right foot crossing in front of the left, then shuffle the left. Spring off the right into a single pullback (the right foot spanks back as it leaves the floor and you land on it again) and finish with a flap onto the left foot. Eight sounds, with the weight ending on the left. After the crossing flap, the rest is an Irish Pullback Flap on the other side: shuffle left, pullback right, flap left.

Practice Tips

  • Spring high enough on the pullback that the landing and the left flap come out as separate, clear sounds.
  • Cross the opening flap well in front, the way a Buffalo crosses, so the left shuffle has room to swing.
