An adjustable glider loop is an oscillator composed of stable reflectors (as opposed to oscillator-based shuttle loops such as 6 bits and Double X), whose positioning and distances can be adjusted to give new periods.

Below are loop from p43 to p54. Note that for the even periods, loops using bumpers will yeild a smaller population and bounding box, as well as the p49 bumper loop.
