Evans RealFeel - Drum Practice Pad - Drum Pad - Drummer Practice Pad - Gum Rubber & Neoprene, 2 Sided, 6 Inch,Grey

There are many nice pads on the market and I own about 10 which all vary in style, some more similar to others than not but this pad is something special and one that no other pad has been able to replicate.The soft and responsive gum rubber top playing surface is truly unique in feel, rebound and texture… it’s porous, which helps keep your stick locked in to its rudiment and helps build conditioning and proper technique. The sound level is perfect, it’s quite but not too quite, it has a pleasant sound.The underside of the two-sided pad is made up of a recycled material that keeps the pad locked in place but also feels good to play on but it’s harder and louder, less rebound. The underside of the one sided pad has a thin foam strip that lines the edges to keep the pad in place but if you can splurge the extra few dollars go for the two-sided… it’s just a better pad.The pad is light enough to stuff in a backpack for easy transportation, thin enough to store in between school books, and durable enough to last years of abuse.All in all, I love this pad. It’s truly something else and I guess it’s the “industry standard” for a reason.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:it’s been so much using this so far

It's an Evan's. Quality, functional, durability.

Great for travel or mobility

Well built, surprisingly heavy. Wood finish came with a noticeable blemish, but nothing that affects its use or else would have been a 5 star rating.

I like it 👍🏻

Look

I take this pad wherever i go because its so small and quiet, i got the little one. But its so much better than having to carry my heavy offworld percussion snare pad
