| Erik,
I'm treading lightly here as I'm not a lead player. Also, concepts are tricky when we try to explain them with language instead of demonstration.
Perhaps what we're discussing is the difference between isometric (muscle working against muscle) strength and velocity. Great lead players (Thorsten Beckenstein comes quickly to mind) seem to find ways to move an enormous amount of concentrated air very quickly, with freedom and flexibility.
I really enjoyed looking at your website, by the way. Very impressive. Please say hello to Wim Both for me if you see him.
Best,
