RABONA
A walking step with a syncopated cross. Done forward or backward the dancer steps on a beat, quickly closes the other foot in cruzada, and steps again on the next beat. ***Adopted from soccer**. See traspie.
TRASPIE
Cross foot; triple step: A walking step with a syncopated cross. Using two beats of music the dancer does step-cross-step beginning with either foot and moving in any direction. See rabona.

"...The controls, while at first seeming quite daunting to get to grips with, soon become second nature. You will quickly identify which players are best at certain techniques and tricks (***the "perpendicular shot" described in an earlier review is actually called the Rabona*** and is limited to certain players in the game). ..."

forli
: oing down the right hand side, instead of crossing the ball with the right foot as expected, the player brings his left foot round the right and crosses the ball. On second thoughts, don`t translate it! I tried this once and still have a knot in my legs.
