A Cabriole: ["caper"]. A step of elevation in which the extended legs are beaten in the air. The working leg is thrust into the air and the underneath leg follows and beats against the first leg sending it higher. The landing is made on the underneath leg.
When ballet dancers do the splits in the air it is usually called a spilt leap or a center leap.
