If he *jumps* then I don't think he's *stepped* off.

OK, I'm willing to be convinced: is there any authority for the proposition that, in the circumstances we are discussing here, it makes a difference if he "steps" [one foot at a time], or "jumps" [both feet off the ground simultaneously]?
Again: LHP "jumps", pivot foot land behind the rubber, he does not separate his hands until after his feet are back on the ground. Any case plays or other precedent that this does NOT constitute "stepping off"?
