I know this happens very rarely, where a monkey jump or small monkey jump gets ignored, and the follow-up (when the 3rd line above is already solid, and the side is still wide open) is another 1st line jump, and another, and another, and another…

I believe there is technically no terminology for this (in Chinese we probably would call it 小伸腿後一路連跳 (basically just the title monkey jump, continues 1st line jump).

And it did happen at the end in the semi-final of the Chunlan Cup today between Shinbano Toramaru and Park Junghawn

Technically not a monkey jump (only a one-space diagonal jump at n1) so, since it is White and the name is up for grabs, we could name it bunny-hop-hop(add and extra -hop for each added stone)? :sweat_smile:

In Chinese terminologies, we categorize them (“small” and “large/normal”) in one category of “leg extension” - 伸腿, we often see people use small or large monkey jumps to translate them. However, the follow-up 1st line jumps are definitely not being named yet.
