Jay,
Your kicker on the main really sounds useful. Do you get a lot of wear? Have you had to replace your slide?
There is a great animated illustration of a kicker on the website for Der Blaserspezialist at Musiktreffpunkt.

Punch the "English" button, then scroll down to "JW euphonium trigger". You will get a, er, kick out of it.
