Named after its apparent innovator, Sabu. An Arabian Press is a form of springboard moonsault wherein the performer bounces from the ropes with their calves instead of their feet, thus providing more snap to the the flip & the impact. It requires the target to be closer to the ropes, as the attacker has less range to work with. But can also be performed to the outside of the ring, as a dive.

The calf-spring technique itself can also serve other uses, like during fancy Salto Mortal dodges or armdrag sequences.

Compare & contrast to the Split-Legged Moonsault.
