By definition, if A1 catches a pass, gains control of the ball (assuming he did not already have control of ball), or stops his dribble with both feet in the air, then he is allowed to land on one foot (his left (LF) foot for this illustration), jump off the LF, land on his RF, then jump in the air off his RF and release the ball for a try or pass. That is not traveling.
