Both Paxman and Alexander offer (as an extra accessory), a slide with a manual change valve. With the valve in the closed position, the slide acts as an A slide. With the valve in the open position, an additional slide length is added to the A slide for stopping. Some other makers also have this option available.

Dan Is that where they have a manual rotary valve to add or subract the extra length?
