The "Velo Glide" is a standard direct pull mechanism. The "Lever Glide" is a strap that pulls a lever, rotating a cam which then pulls the shaft. Basically, the Level Glide is smoother, with more even pressure the whole stroke, and bottoms out slower so it is more sensitive. You can control the pressure easier with the Lever Glide, but it is harder to get a quick foot click. If you play rock, that might be good for you, since you play the hats with your sticks 99.99% of the time and it is easier to control the "sloshy" sound with your foot. If you play the hi-hats more with your foot, like in Jazz, the Velo Glide is quicker and faster for making foot-clicks.
