XCross
From Speedsolving.com Wiki
The extended cross is a sub-step that creates the cross and the first F2L pair simultaneously. The idea of a 2x2x2 and the cross combined as two separate phases was first proposed by Anthony Snyder in the 80's. In July 2003 Chris Hardwick proposed the full XCross as a single phase to be planned during inspection.
