PING has taken an innovative path to design the Glide wedges, designing them for dominant small-game performance and trajectory control whatever the length of the shots. Its engineers have refined the look of the Glides to give birth to the new Glide 2.0, to make this range of wedges the most complete and cutting-edge ever offered by the brand to date.

Highlighted by the introduction of new grooves, always more precisely machined, which increase the spin rate by around 350 rpm for full shots and 200 rpm for shots around the green compared to the original Glide, the Glide 2.0 line. also presents a range of 16 loft / bounce / sole finishes to suit all conditions of soil and angles of attack.

The high openings (54º - 60º) are designed to produce fine shots around the greens and have two additional streaks compared to the first Glide of the name, while the lower lofts (46º - 52º) are designed for full shots and have one more streak compared to their eldest.

The new AWT 2.0 wedge handle is optimally designed in terms of weight, flexibility and balance for a stable feeling and low ball flight, while the elongated Dyla-wedge grip encourages to keep the grip lower for improve ball flight control.

Four varied finishes - standard, wide, fine and eye - allow players to find a wedge to match their divot depth and the playing conditions they are in, while the increasingly steep walls across the lofts increase the streak volume for improved performance on full shots and optimized spin on chipping and pitching. The “hydropearl” finish provides a water repellent effect, for more control in wet conditions and a smoother spin, even from the rough.

The new Glide 2.0 wedges can be pre-ordered from today at all authorized PING dealers.
