Vic Firth’s Double-Surface Practice Pad sets a high standard for drumming practice with a single-side, dual-rubber surface with two convenient feel options for keeping your chops sharp, whether you’re perfecting a new piece of music, or working on stick control. Even when played with full force at the loudest dynamic, this pad absorbs the blows and controls the volume for longer and later practice. The left side features a softer, gray rubber that provides the realistic feel of a drumhead for a guaranteed wrist workout. The right side has a harder black rubber surface with slightly more volume, quick rebound and tight articulation ideal for marching and rudimentary practice.
