Ryan,

If you are going to do an actual glide, try this. Practice in your house without a stone. Just work on a small quick glide, landing balanced on both feet at the same time. Your back foot, the drive foot, should end parallel to the trig. This will put you right into the power position. Then it is just a Braemar. Another key is to be smooth. If you pause, the entire motion is wasted. Another excercise is to glide down a long line. Just glide into position, then glide into position again. By using the line, you will ensure maximum use of energy and balance.
