disagree  Gerard Burns Jr.: It is more likely to mean one of the feet- although without more context I can't be sure.
1 hr
  -> Yes, more likely (patasola) le decimos por acá, pero si has escuchado hablar de carreras de enconstalados, por ejemplo, los chicos dicen hop hop...
disagree  margaret caulfield: You never "hop" with both feet. "Hop" means to jump using only one foot.
2 hrs
  -> Yes but you could also hop on even (not as opposite of odd but a synonim for both)... Or should we say jump?
agree  lincasanova: con los dos pies juntitos estilo conejo. i imagine this reduces transmission of electricity in case of some dangerous situation. sounds like safety measures
6 hrs
  -> A mí me sonó por este lado. Además lo he visto hacer a los chicos. Gracias lincasanova. Incluyo tu referencia textualmente: "You are right.. check out www.nspower.ca"
