Forward slip in glass gliders won't get you much descent;

I'm not sure about that - the glass gliders that I have tried forward
slips with usually got really huge descent rates.

A few examples:
ASK-21, G-103, ASW-24: Sideslip very effective
DG-300, DG-505: Sideslip extremely effective
AS22-2: Sideslip pretty effective
