I think we can all agree that an appropriate name for gliding with the brake instead of the foot/feet is "brake gliding". Coasting involves not touching any moving parts of the unicycle (pedals, spokes, cranks, rim or tire). Gliding just eliminates the pedals/cranks and you can touch the tire or rim.

Only Terry is still clinging to the coasting name since he is so keen to learn coasting but is looking for a way to make it easier. You can coast during a glide but you can't glide during a coast. Sorry Terry! Somehow I think normal coasting would be easier than brake assisted coasting, having never owned a unicycle brake.
