Maybe someone already mentioned this, but ... the way I heard folks use the term double time ("doble tiempo" - not "doble ritmo") in Buenos Aires is referring to when we step twice during a beat, or, put it differently, we step on each of the two eights comprising a quarter-note long beat. Some ppl call that, presumably incorrectly, syncopation (we heard enough about that here).
