{{nihongo|'''Glide'''|グライド|Guraido}} is an [[ability]] that appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts Final Mix]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix]]'', ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'', and ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]''. In ''Kingdom Hearts'' it is a [[Abilities (Kingdom Hearts)#Shared abilities|Shared ability]], in ''Kingdom Hearts II'' and ''Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix'' it is a [[Abilities (Kingdom Hearts II)#Growth abilities|Growth ability]] learned and upgraded by leveling up [[Final Form]], and in ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'' it is an [[Panel System#Ability Panels|ability panel]] that can be upgraded from '''Glide LV1''' to '''Glide LV2''', '''Glide LV3''', '''Glide LV4''', and '''Glide LV5''' by linking {{nihongo|'''Glide LV+ Ⓛ'''|グライドアップⓁ|Guraido Appu Ⓛ|lit. "Glide Up Ⓛ"}} panels.
{{nihongo|'''Glide'''|グライド|Guraido}} is a skill introduced in ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}''. It allows the user to ride the wind and travel over distances in the air. It can be used as a faster mode of transportation than running, or as an evasion technique.


Glide allows you to ride the wind and travel over distances in the air. It can be used as a faster mode of transportation than running, or as an evasion technique. This ability can be activated in midair by holding down {{button|c}} in ''Kingdom Hearts'' and ''Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories'', {{button|s}} in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', {{button|dsy}} in ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', and {{button|c}} in ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep''. If the button is held down without indicating a direction on the control stick or pad, you will slowly descend in place. Leveling up Glide in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', ''Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix'', and ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'' increases gliding speed.
==Mechanics==
[[File:Glide KHBBS.gif|250px|thumb]]
In ''Kingdom Hearts'', Glide is a [[shared ability]]. It is activated by holding {{button|c}} while in midair, {{button|x}} in the Japanese release.


In ''Kingdom Hearts'', ''Kingdom Hearts Final Mix'', and ''Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories'', there is a similar ability, called [[Superglide]], that acts as a stronger form as Glide.
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories]]'', Glide is a movement ability that can be used by [[Sora]]. It is automatically equipped when learned, and it is activated by pressing and holding {{button|c}} in midair, {{button|x}} in the Japanese release.
<!--It should be noted that only Glide LV3 and Glide MAX can allow Sora to permanently stay aloft on a flat surface; while he is using Glide LV1 and LV2, he cannot do so and will eventually stand back on his two feet within a short time.
In Neverland, [[Tinker Bell]] sprinkles a glowing dust (known as "Pixie Dust" by the characters of the Disney film, "Peter Pan") on Roxas so that he can fly in this world. After his first mission in Neverland, Roxas gains the Glide panel. This ability is physically alike shared ability Superglide from ''Kingdom Hearts''. -->


==Learning Glide ==
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]'', Glide is a [[growth ability]] that costs 3 {{AP}} to equip. It allows Sora to glide by holding {{button|s}} in midair, slowly floating downward until he lands on the ground. When activated, Sora will remain in place until {{button|lana}} is tilted in a direction. Leveling it up decreases the descent angle of the glide, allowing Sora to stay aloft longer, even staying aloft permanently at LV3, as well as increasing his gliding speed. When using Glide, Sora can transition between it and other aerial actions. While Glide causes Sora to start slow and move faster according to the level of the glide, abilities such as a high-level [[Aerial Dodge]] give him momentum to start gliding at full speed right away.
===''Kingdom Hearts'' and ''Kingdom Hearts Final Mix''===
 
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'', Glide is an [[ability panel]] that can be leveled up from '''Glide LV1''' to '''Glide LV2''', '''Glide LV3''', '''Glide LV4''', and '''Glide LV5''' by linking {{nihongo|'''Glide LV+ Ⓛ'''|グライドアップⓁ|Guraido Appu Ⓛ|lit. "Glide Up Ⓛ"}} panels. Each level decreases loss of altitude, increases acceleration and maximum glide speed, allows for tighter turning, increases the time the user can glide continuously at ground level, and decreases the delay time after ending a glide before other actions can be performed. It is activated by pressing and holding {{button|dsy}} while in midair. It cannot be used in certain areas, such as [[The Grey Area]] or [[Station Plaza]] on Day 357.
 
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]'', Glide is a {{c|movement command|BBS}} exclusive to [[Ventus]] that is activated by pressing and holding {{button|c}} while in midair. It has a maximum level of 1.
 
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts Re:coded]]'', Glide is a [[Bonus Booster]] ability that can be leveled up from Glide Lv.1 to Glide Lv.2. It is activated by holding {{button|dsy}} while in midair. Data-Sora can transition to and from Glide while using other aerial actions, such as [[Air Slide]].
 
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]'', Glide is a {{c|movement command|DDD}} exclusive to Sora that is activated by pressing and holding {{button|dsb}} while in midair. Gliding will disable the use of all commands until Sora lands.
 
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]'', Glide is a [[mobility ability]] that can be used by Sora that costs 1 AP to equip. It allows Sora to glide by holding {{button|c}} in midair. It has a high speed and low rate of descent. If [[Doubleflight]] is equipped, pressing {{button|c}} in midair will activate Doubleflight. However, holding {{button|c}} on the initial jump triggers Glide instead.
 
In ''[[Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory]]'', Glide can be used by holding {{button|c}} while in midair. The user will stay at a fixed level without descent while Glide is being used.

The Glide sequence in Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories.

Glide (グライド Guraido?) is a skill introduced in Kingdom Hearts. It allows the user to ride the wind and travel over distances in the air. It can be used as a faster mode of transportation than running, or as an evasion technique.

Mechanics[edit]

Ventus using High Jump, then Glide.

In Kingdom Hearts, Glide is a shared ability. It is activated by holding Circle while in midair, X in the Japanese release.

In Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories, Glide is a movement ability that can be used by Sora. It is automatically equipped when learned, and it is activated by pressing and holding Circle in midair, X in the Japanese release.

In Kingdom Hearts II, Glide is a growth ability that costs 3 AP to equip. It allows Sora to glide by holding Square in midair, slowly floating downward until he lands on the ground. When activated, Sora will remain in place until Left Stick is tilted in a direction. Leveling it up decreases the descent angle of the glide, allowing Sora to stay aloft longer, even staying aloft permanently at LV3, as well as increasing his gliding speed. When using Glide, Sora can transition between it and other aerial actions. While Glide causes Sora to start slow and move faster according to the level of the glide, abilities such as a high-level Aerial Dodge give him momentum to start gliding at full speed right away.

In Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days, Glide is an ability panel that can be leveled up from Glide LV1 to Glide LV2, Glide LV3, Glide LV4, and Glide LV5 by linking Glide LV+ Ⓛ (グライドアップⓁ Guraido Appu Ⓛ?, lit. "Glide Up Ⓛ") panels. Each level decreases loss of altitude, increases acceleration and maximum glide speed, allows for tighter turning, increases the time the user can glide continuously at ground level, and decreases the delay time after ending a glide before other actions can be performed. It is activated by pressing and holding Y while in midair. It cannot be used in certain areas, such as The Grey Area or Station Plaza on Day 357.

In Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep, Glide is a movement command exclusive to Ventus that is activated by pressing and holding Circle while in midair. It has a maximum level of 1.

In Kingdom Hearts Re:coded, Glide is a Bonus Booster ability that can be leveled up from Glide Lv.1 to Glide Lv.2. It is activated by holding Y while in midair. Data-Sora can transition to and from Glide while using other aerial actions, such as Air Slide.

In Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance, Glide is a movement command exclusive to Sora that is activated by pressing and holding B while in midair. Gliding will disable the use of all commands until Sora lands.

In Kingdom Hearts III, Glide is a mobility ability that can be used by Sora that costs 1 AP to equip. It allows Sora to glide by holding Circle in midair. It has a high speed and low rate of descent. If Doubleflight is equipped, pressing Circle in midair will activate Doubleflight. However, holding Circle on the initial jump triggers Glide instead.

In Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory, Glide can be used by holding Circle while in midair. The user will stay at a fixed level without descent while Glide is being used.
