It was rather like how an inchworm moves.

As well as for doing this for rough terrain, I can imagine that a snail would do this on dry dusty terrain to minimise the amount of slime it must produce. That would account for the trail in Lamplighter's photo.

Or it's a nightclub snail tripping on speed.
