I've called this violation exactly once, this year, on the offense (a weird year for me).
A1 had the ball near the sideline in his FC, trapped by two defenders and the sideline, but had not used his dribble yet.
He takes the ball and bounces it towards his endline, behind the defender, then runs OOB quickly to get around the defender before stepping in bounds to retrieve the ball. It stunned me for a second as I tried to determine whether he got IB before touching the ball; then I realized it didn't matter.
