How does glide relate to point of pressure?
This isn't about form, but does have an impact on mentality and form. Feel free to take it down, but I think the technicality of this subreddit might be of use to this question, so just cross posting it here:
So I know there is this point that moves on a disc creating lift. As the disc is moving faster it is farther back and slower it is farther forward, creating turn and fade. AI search says its called the point of pressure, so I'll call it PoP for now.
In terms of PoP what is glide?
- Is it how much force is applied to the PoP?
- Is it how quickly the PoP moves from the back to the front at different speeds and spins? So higher glide would be slower transition from turn to fade?
- Or obviously, something else?
I realize there are other non-PoP contexts. Like the description from Innova,
>"Glide describes the discs ability to maintain loft during flight. Discs with more glide are best for new players, and for producing maximum distance. Beginners wanting more distance should choose discs with more glide. Discs with less glide are more accurate in high wind situations."
I'm wondering if there is a more technical PoP contextual description of glide.
