it lets you get really wide to start so you can have a good strong backwards load, then by sliding over you ensure you are fully loaded into the back leg because the front foot has to be unweighted to slide. I also like the timing benefits. By keeping the front foot in motion it just gives a more active rhythm to the motion. Not an absolute by any stretch of the imagination. We introduced it about a year ago on a recommendation from Javasource and DD likes the feel. I think we were doing our first step back work at the time.
