breakover
Crest before descent
Breakover is the point or angle at which something tips, pivots, or transitions from one state to another.
In off-road driving, breakover angle measures how steep a ridge a vehicle can cross without the undercarriage scraping: That Jeep has excellent breakover for rocky terrain.
In hoofcare, breakover refers to where the hoof rolls forward during a stride.
The term appears in various technical contexts where a threshold triggers a change in behavior or position.
