And finally, the sales pitch from the folks at Glidetrack:

New Hybrid bearings offer a combination of both sliding AND roller bearings, giving you the best of both worlds, as show above. This includes an open architecture design that uses individual greaseless self lubricating plastic bearings and liners that can quickly and easily be swapped out if required. It is easy to ensure optimal performance, as you can literally take the carriage apart, wash or blow it down, and you are ready to shoot again.

These new style Hybrid bearings offer you all the advantages of both styles of bearing without any of the disadvantages.

New style adjustable end feet that offer the users the ability to QUICKLY adjust for uneven ground, run the unit horizontally, at inclines , vertically......or even upside down!
