Gibraltar Catapult Pedal

[intake]

pretty neat!

next best thing ba yan to an axis longboard?

[peeves24]

nalaro ko sya kanina sa park square. ang gaan at sobrang smooth ng feel. napakatahimik din. medyo hindi ko lang nagustuhan yung pakiramdam na masyado ko malayo sa bass drum.

construction wise, may malaking possibility na mag wiggle yung footboard. hindi maganda yung hinge ng footboard. may parang rubber dun sa contact point nung bearing ng top footboard at yung catapult mismo. baka pag naubos na yung rubber, mag introduce na ng ingay dahil may metal to metal contact

Eto ang best for blast beats.

I have one in my pedal set up,and i play bossa,samba,latin and bebop jazz music. The problem with this pedal is indeed the rebound effect. The spring is too weak to pull back the heavy shaft and beater,not much help for the speed rebound effect. And the are limited adjustments sa Beater and footboard angles. And the footboard metal bearing (which push-slides the beater shaft rubber) at times is cascading with the metal shaft.

@ sunny - maganda ba sya pag more on doubles ka?

[harugrugrug]

i tried this one bro.. heel toe works just fine here for me.. as for heel down..
struggle ako.. pero depende sa technique mo yan bro...

[sunny]

@greysky-heavy spring tension ksi ako sa bassdrum pedals ko so this Gibraltar pedal doesnt work much for me pag sa doubles,kulang ang spring tension for rebound(for me). Limited rin adjustments nya,you would have to adjust your technique with it. Pero i Like its modern design,i just wish Gibraltar put more adjustment options in it...

[greysky]

i see..
actually im planning to buy a single pedal kasi
kaya mejo nakuha neto ang attention ko
nung nabasa ko na "for speed freak" daw ehehe

thanks.

[peeves24]

IMHO, i dont believe in pedals designed for "speed freaks". i know it wont make me play faster if i use it. it does feel different compared to common pedal designs but...nasa drummer pa rin yun 

[drumster]

^ I agree with you, bro peeves!

I'm wondering how Gibraltar will design a double pedal version of the Catapult, if ever it becomes a successful product.

[intake]

since gumagalaw yung buong footboard...mahirap nga ang heel down, not meant for me 

[ciro]

testi pls.... ang gara ng itsura eh..... ok ba to at mabilis?

tanong lang...

guys, pls. enlighten me about this pedal.i play flat footed, diff. genres din ang tinutigtog ko. trip ko sana  pero parang walang masyadong gumagamit nito. even sa youtube, 3 vids lang ata ang meron nito.
