Description

An Irish Pullback Flap whose pullback gains a toe tip. Shuffle the right foot, then do a Single Pullback Toe on the left: spring off the left foot, spanking it back, hit the left toe tip, and step back onto the left. Finish with a right flap. Seven sounds, with the weight ending on the right.

Practice Tips

  • Keep the left ankle fairly relaxed on the pullback, and spring high enough that the foot has time to reach the toe tip before it steps.
  • Get the Single Pullback Toe clean on its own first, then put the shuffle in front and the flap after it.
