These layouts can do...?
« on: November 11, 2006, 01:01:26 PM »
EDIT: FIXED

I am wondering if i have the right idea of what these layouts do?..

* = PIN
@ = CG
0 = Finger Holes
X = x-hole

Length and hard backend: (pin above bridge, cg kicked out right)
---*
--0 0
----@
 
---0

Earlier Roll with strong arc kind of move: (stacked leverage)

--0 0
-----*---X (between the CG and PIN, but i can't put it there, lol)
-----@
---0

Skid/Flippy: (pin above ring, cg kicked right a little)
----*
--0 0
-----@

---0

Basic full roller:

---0 0

----@ (up a little higher with the CG though)
-*--0

Hmm, is this a weaker layout?: (pin below bridge, cg kicked a little right, with an x-hole below and right, kinda, lol)

--0 0
---*
----@
---0--X (x-hole possibly?)

I hope someone can tell me how i did on these layouts
I'm just trying to see if some of my knowledge is correct
THanks a lot

Pin in relation to gripping holes mean nothing.  It's the length of the pin from the PAP and the height above the midline that termine the type of motion you will see.

AFFECT OF PIN PLACMENT
Pin to PAP distance:
0" - minimum flare potential, core is in it's most stable position, earliest roll with smoothest arc.
1 1/8" - 1/3 of flare potential, stable core position, earlier roll with smooth arc.
2 1/4" - 2/3 of flare potential, semi stable core position, early roll with strong arc.
3 3/8" - max flare potential, most unstable core position, medium length with the most hook potential.
4 1/2" - 2/3 of flare potential, semi stable core position, late roll with flip/arc reaction.
5 5/8" - 1/3 of flare potential, stable core position, later roll with a flip reaction.
6 3/4" - minimum flare potential, stable core position, latest roll with strongest flip.
Remember : These reaction charcteristics are all relative to the conditions they are being used on and may not perform as expected due to burning up too early or not setting up early enough.
Pin to grip center (GC) distance: The higher the pin above grip center the more lenght you will get fot given pin to PAP distance. The placement in relation to GC also affects where the tracks of track flare intersect (bow tie). Higher pin = Higher intersection. For this reason they suggest high trackers place the pin higher above GC to reduce the risk of flaring over the finger holes.
