I may have a solution for you guys that will make it cheaper for you. Working on it, will kep you posted.

**Worley** · 2008 June 19th, 01:39

I have one, and it's a joy to use. I'll be using it in my next commission (classical music video).

Mr Brown has done a great job in engineering the Glidetrack. An invaluable addition to any serious videographer's arsenal IMHO.

**brockraum** · 2008 June 19th, 01:43

wow that thing is legit!
the moment you get this new deal done count me in for one!

Works for me. Try it out again.

I'm pretty sure I've seen a DIY version of this kind of thing somewhere as well, for those with more time than money.

Sorry, one of my increasingly senior moment. I meant 'Mr Brown', not Hunter, has done an excellent job.

Apologies to you both.

Can I have my pills back now, nurse?

Nurse...?

Thats relative, how much extra business do you think having "Damn nice footage" will get you? One job would pay for it.

Anything cheaper yet?

**Alastair Brown** · 2008 August 13th, 14:19

I have found a cheaper courier for abroad. This means I can now offer the Full setup for £225 delivered to the USA or Canada.

**OOKfilms** · 2008 August 13th, 23:50

wow..

great shots, very useful... looks to be great quality. .i'll have to wait till my coffee can is a little fuller....

CHEERS!

**PadawanGeek** · 2008 August 13th, 23:56

Looks cool, but my wallet's not that big. How long is it? (in inches please)

It's 39" or to Metric people 1M

**Sean Michael** · 2008 August 14th, 02:42

It looks impressive. How many days is the average delivery time to the USA?

I posted one on Monday at 10am and it arrived on Weds at 11am.

So 3 days. I always try and keep a couple ready for posting.

**jshooter** · 2008 August 14th, 08:33

Very nice footage. It would be great a video showing someone using it. How much weight can it handle? how about shipping to Spain? could you PM me?

Thanks and regards

**Dodgy Nick** · 2008 August 14th, 08:43

I'd just like to add that I purchased the Glidetrack(TM) to do weddings and the product is absolutely superb and have helped my footage to step up a notch or three. Alastair is very professional and a pleasure to work with, extremely helpful and very responsive.

I can't recommend this product and Alistair highly enough.

**jshooter** · 2008 August 14th, 10:36

Would it work with HV20+Letus Extreme+lenses+matte box?
Can't find maximum weight.

Thanks

**Worley** · 2008 August 14th, 11:00

It can take a LOT of weight. For some reason my younger son - 13 kg - likes to pretend it's a ladder. It takes his weight no problem!

I've lent mine out to a pro cameraman, and he is absolutely bowled over by it.

So £199 is money very well spent. You'll not find a better solution to gliding shots that can be set up in matter of moments.

**jshooter** · 2008 August 14th, 11:06

Wonderful, I think I'll buy it and use in my next short with Red One camera.

Thanks for the info and regards

**94strings** · 2008 August 14th, 15:59

Alistair, I just ordered one to the U.S. Your product looks great. I'll be using it with my hv20 soon and then the Red Scarlet in April. I'll post my experience with your Glidetrack after receiving it.-Sam

**swinefilms** · 2008 August 14th, 17:29

I am very interested, but how many usd's is it?

also, how much would a 3m one be?
