Explanation:
Firstly, here are some references in English. This is also known as a "corbie step".:

MLA style:
"Corbie Step." Encyclopædia Britannica. 2003. Encyclopædia Britannica Premium Service.

<http://www.britannica.com/eb/article?eu=26667>

In Spanish, this is what I get from Google for "corbie step":
