Sorry, but that is not correct.   The man's foot out is not a barrida (if 
that is what you mean to say) because that means "sweep" in Spanish, like when 
you "sweep the floor" or in tango when you sweep or push the followers's foot 
along the floor - it describes a motion, not a stopping of the motion. 
Parada means stop, as in to stop something from moving. (It can also mean a 
bus stop or train station, like where the bus or train "stops."). In this case, 
it is most likely an amague, which means a feint or a "threat" (in the 
lightest sense though) if that is what he is asking.
