For me, the most useful image of support is squeezing a toothpast tube. Having firm support is the equivalent of squeezing from the bottom of the tube: Whatever pressure you exert acts to regulate/control the flow of toothpaste out of the mouth of the tube. Lack of support is akin to squeezing in the middle of the tube: you have far less control of toothpaste flow because the energy of the squeeze is variably divided in moving up to push out the toothpase and down into the base of the tube.
Mr. Pay's description, while better than most, works no better for me than Keith Stein's "basketball in the lower abdomen" imagery. It is still a matter of stabilizing the abdominal/pelvic musculature so pressure and airflow can only go out the horn.
