Usage: The terms "side skipping" and "shuffle steps" denote a series of "side steps" required to reach a ball. Oftentimes one small step to the side (or sidestep) is required before hitting the ball; other times several sidesteps (or shuffle steps) are required for more distant balls. The term "side skipping" refers to the process or action rather than to the result thereof. 4, record 4, English, - sidestep
