Whether you're honing your chops or warming up before a gig, this Prologix Red Storm practice pad is a drummer's best friend. This 8-inch practice pad features a special dual-density design equipped with Prologix's Variant Surface Technology, formulated to provide you with the natural tip absorption and realistic stick response of a well-tensioned drumhead. What's more, the drummers here at Sweetwater were particularly impressed with the Red Storm's countersunk Flex Tech Rim, which feels just like an actual snare drum rim to make practicing rim shots and cross-stick patterns totally realistic. Plus, a composite recycled wood base with a recycled rubber bottom surface is perfect for additional sound options.
