Just because it looks weird doen't mean it is illegal.
If you are going to call IP on something because it "LOOKS" strange, you are going to be in for a long day at any Seniors Tournament.

Speaking ASA
It wouldn't be legal because the first sentence of Rule 6(SP)1.A reads:
The pitcher must take a position with both feet firmly on the ground and with one or both feet in contact with the pitcher's plate.
I believe I would find it difficult to believe someone's foot can be "firmly" on the ground if the bottom of the foot isn't in contact with it.
Okay, now we can start discussing what is meant by "firmly on the ground".
