It did not look right and the next thing I knew I blew my whistle and called it over and back, but I'am not sure if I got it right? I check with other officials and got differant answers.
This my second year and I have not seen this before. Thanks for the help!

Dibbs,
I am agreeing with BktBallRef
Even in a jump switch with both feet in the air, if the left foot hit FC first, the player is now in the FC.
If the right foot his first, then the player is still in the back court.
And if you don't know, don't blow.
That's a lot like traveling. Just because it looked funny, doesn't make it illegal, make sure, or pass.
I agree with you, there are some "fancy dance steps" on the hardwood.
