1 questions 1st, i might have a few more later
Can someone explain or point to an article that explains the difference between a slant and a drag route? (and which is more effective and when?)
they look similar to me, both starting from the outside and then going short run forward and middle
i'm having trouble understanding why they have different names
did a search but didn't get any good articles to read on that

A drag is run on two sides of a square. At least that's how I always understood the routes. |

Yeah, given that you're in Sweden Somar, you might need to switch to the American version of google when you look these things up. Since moving to Canada, I've realized that when searching for certain topics that are more commonly searched in the US, switching from the default "Google.ca" to "Google.com" can help. |

Slant=45 degree angle, Drag=90 degree angle |
