This old warlock movement method has returned with the Bungie anniversary update released a few days ago.
This skate used to be possible with the Worldline Zero, waiting for the Tesseract perk to proc before dropping off a ledge and popping the exotic perk and Well of Radiance at the same time.
The same process applies, however the Worldline Zero got nerfed into the ground therefore there's a new sword on the block to go fast with!
For this you'll need either The Other Half or the Half-Truths legendary swords, both available with the Bungie 30th Anniversary event. However it's just just as easy as acquiring the sword. Next, you'll need to get the Eager Edge perk, which is the backbone of this entire method. This perk allows you to gain a massive momentum boost when switching to your sword for the first second.
The timing can be quite annoying to master, but the cycle goes as follows:
1. Find a ledge and sprint towards it with your primary equipped.
2. Swap to your sword a second before you're about to drop from the ledge.
3. Once you swap to your sword and you have the Eager Edge perk active, you can then light attack off the edge.
4. The second you become airborne, jump and then immediately use your Well of Radiance.
5. This will cause you to gain a massive boost in momentum.
6 (Optional). You can hold your grenade to fly further.
