Thought it worth a quick correction and explaination:

1. Intermediate Figure #9 is a 1 1/4 turn spin (positive spin from upright), not a hammerhead

2. the basic Aresti figure is family 1: 1.6.3 ~ without the spin it would simply be a push to a vertical downline from upright...then pull to upright, cross-box. The push to the vertical downline is a negative-G manuever, hence the dotted lines.....

If the spin were replaced by aileron rolls, point rolls or snap rolls, then the dotted line would make sense. By applying the spin to the basic manuever it does make one scratch his head looking at the dotted line on the down-line!

Hope that clears it up a bit.......

Oh....and as the last post stated, the cross-box exit can be either in or out!
