Notes
MIDDLE ROAD - 4239 In political terms, this pattern is centrism in nature because the characteristics lie between the extremes of having to play too far to the right or too far to the left. The MIDDLE ROAD is a 39 foot pattern that is moderately challenging; it's not too easy nor is it not too tough. The best mindset and line for this pattern is usually somewhere near the middle of the road. Kegel Pattern Library: Kegel Patterns / Navigation Patterns.
