I had iron cobras before these butes and i think the ic's had a ton more rebound but having the ability to adjust alot on this makes up for it. also if you think you want these you'd better get some different beaters. in my opinion, they're junk. so i used the iron cobra beater with the rubber tips. real nice tho otherwise

Once you're done with the compression spring learning curve this pedal is a beast. Built like a tank...the driveshaft is TIG welded, come on? Billet aluminum beaters hit hard, the pedal is infinitely adjustable...I went from Axis A's to this, I love the axis, but bottom line is this pedal is designed and built better, not saying one or the other is better, thats all personal preference, but this pedal will probably fit the bill who thought the Axis pedals felt "too light" This pedal has me eyeballing a trick kit now...

I bought this pedal on the 27th of Jan 09. I am still getting accustomed to it. Coming from 6 years on a Tama Iron Cobra, this is a whole new ball game. Very well made, smooth as butter, very sensitive and allows speed with ease. I wear size 13 and the foot boards are plenty big. The pedal truly acts as independent beaters. Not like the Tama system. I've not played the original Trick or the Axis, but it would be hard to top this pedal. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars across the board? Trick had a design flaw in the mounting system. However it has been corrected and is now flawless. The mount system needs replacement rubber feet, which Trick will provide for free if you call them. I got the first run of this pedal, they say it is now fixed and shipping corrected. You will not be sorry with this pedal.
