The Saloneo basic figure is a walk in Caída position (aka Dile Que No start position). We have always had Leads walking around like that but mostly small time without really thinking about what they were doing. Yoel Marreo (MCC) generalised the Caída walk into a handful of solid basic figures. "Open Saloneo" is my contribution to the family, but many other Leads must have done something similar.

For the classic Saloneo, the Follow starts in Caída start position on "1", she walks a "S"-shaped pattern into the next Caída start position on "7-8", etc. The "Open Saloneo" is to do exactly the same but the Follow is only led by the shoulder with the Lead's right arm.

"Open Saloneo" can be used on its own but most often a Lead will like to combine several Saloneo variations into a longer Saloneo walk.

For Saloneo walks as well as for many other great social moves, they work the best if the Follow always steps forward on "1" in the main mode of Cuban Salsa. Many of the best basic figures and walks fall apart and must be aborted as soon as the Follow makes a back-step instead of continuing forward.

Most of the figures in the videos work the best or are only possible if the Follow steps forward by default. A Follow should only do a back-step, loosing two steps, if the Lead lead her into such a back-step, putting a break on the dance.

Back-rocking Cuban Salsa, very common outside of Cuba but also in Cuba, could be called the Limited Edition of Cuban Salsa because it puts so many constraints on leading and following that less than half as many computational options are available compared to "always" stepping forward.
