I've had mine for about 4 years now and absolutely love them. I bought them after breaking the right foot pedal on what I thought was a very solid set of Gibraltar direct drive doubles. I wanted something "unbreakable" and also easy to use and adjust. These are so easy to set up and adjust. Well worth the money. I recently bought a set of second hand Axis A21 direct drives to compare and for me, after adjusting to every conceivable setting, which was an absolute pain, I couldn't get anywhere near the feel of the Trick Pedals.
Hey, I know this comment is kinda old but are you still using them?
These are great bought them couple months ago. Great response. And convertible into two singles. Very nice pedals
Fantastic double base drum pedal. However, I found the footboards too heavy and ordered lightweight foodboards. What a difference much faster and smoother now! I also shortened the connecting shaft slightly!
Very interesting! I use axis and the footboards are too light! Hahaha
People say these are expensive, but after paying $800 for my direct drive Gibraltars about 7 years ago, I though the extra $200 on top of that was well worth it.
This was an awesome informative video! Thank you!
Awesome tutorial... great breakdown on what these pedals can do..
Good video! @14:15 You got it backwards. The lowest hole on the direct drive is longer throw like you said, but it will provide more power. Then the top hole would be shorter throw, less power but faster.
Was thinking about buying another set of DW's till I saw these, ohh I likey!
I've got a set of these pedals & they are by far my favorite pedals to date. So easy to adjust & they are solid as fuck!
If you had the beaters sit back a little more, beaters without felt, and tension cranked more (if it wasn't) You'd have more power and the bass would be louder. But then again, you might sacrifice speed.
This was an awesome review. Really detailed. Thanks 🙏🏻
Your awesome kevin.
I have dw9000 double kick. I had one as a kid too and I’ve always thought the left pedal is horrible. I was trying to adjust my pedal the other day and I was getting pissed cause it seemed like a cheap pedal. I plan on getting this trick pedal real soon.
If you didn’t already get new pedals, you should try a TRICK drive shaft.
@@joshuapearson2217 that’s my next upgrade for sure
Chain drive is obsolete, basically.
A very thorough review. Excellent! Only one small note, the drumming you're playing in the background during the beginning of the video when you are talking is a bit loud and makes it difficult to pay attention to your voice at times.
You Are Rasputin Drummer???? jeje Hail COMPADRE!!!! from Chile!
Not sure if anyone will respond but, to get my beater angle to come back around 45 degrees; I had to use an angle finder due to being outside the hash marks on the pedal. Not a big deal or against the rules or anything like that. I was just wondering if anyone else experienced this. Absolutely love these pedals.
thank you for the video explanation
Trick are the best forget the rest
How do you keep it from sliding off the kick? Mine keeps sliding off..
I've heard mixed reviews on this pedal. Some say it's too responsive which causes it to feel uncontrollable and ahead of u too much. Other half likes them.
i had this pedal for about 3 or 4 years... it is like you said. i never had real control. but it is a personal thing. I switched back to regular pedals. recently i tried trick again and it sucked (for me)
yeah theres definitely a learning curve that i guess some people cant grasp, which just means it's not for everybody
Never played tricks, but this is the overall feeling i get with direct drive ! It has always been cool for me if i was using double strokes (heel toe), but when it comes to ankle motion controll... i switched to the Camco's by tama, (old double bass pedal from 1983), and in only 6 months i was able to fill the gap i had with dd (between 170 to 200 bpm), and go beyond my limits !
I think everyone's just different ! That's why some people use swivel like kollias, some the jojo mayer technique like wanja, some people like roddy even play half heel down / heel !
basically its an extension of your foot so if you have poor control then you wont be able to control the pedal. there's no smoke and mirrors, just practise if you want to be better.
what are your thoughts on the new redlines? i really like them was thinking about buying a set so i could leave the tricks at home stationary when i play out. are they on par with the tricks im not good enough at double pedals yet to notice or know the nuances over a 4 hour session but iniatally in store the redlines and dw mdds are my to favs outside of the tricks. thank you Kevin!
11:00 hoop adjustment
And the tension spring?
I just wish I could afford them
Nefarion exactly! A grand for a double pedal, hard to drop that kind of skriddy.
me ensina regular o iron cobra?
I can’t believe you went with this over the Koptyo or however you spell it or Darwin’s.
I can't stand this sudden hype for these brands. For some reasons, people had begun to believe they are over the top, but they are not. Almost nothing can replace the feel I have with Trick. Some people don't like how they react, I do. This myth of which drum pedals is the best has to stop. We are very lucky to have a lot of very good brands with dedicated people that make different pedals.
I just figured since you were in Europe they would be easier to get those but understandable. I’m wanting to get the new trick low mass pro v1 pedals. They sound sick
@@GraveyardWarden you figured that because every else uses them, they must be the best...Do you have any experience with trick pedals?
Michael Beddoe I just thought since he’s in Europe he’d go for the Darwin’s or The Copytos like Ken from aborted. And yes I like the trick a lot, I have axis right now and I can’t stand them to be honest. Very annoying and not user friendly. Saw aborted, benighted, hideous divinity and cryptopsy in March in hell over North America in Kansas City. Talked to ken and Kevin and both were super fucking sick nice dudes. Insanely sick and tight drummers.
Michael Beddoe in reality I’d like to get those polish pedals the czarcie kopytos. Those things look like fucking powerhouses and invincible. I actually got behind kens kit and he let me play on them for a second. Insane pedals.
The damn drumming the background is a HUGE distraction
What exactly is the difference between the Pro1-V and the Dominator?
I heard these are more adjustable. George Kolias axis pedals are insane too.
And the base plate on the dominators is not solid meaning they are a fair bit lighter.
The hoop clamp can't be moved forwards/backwards and has the lever under the footboard rather than besides it, the direct drive linkage doesn't have three but only one position and it's generally constructed a good bit less massive (not saying it's less stable or anything). But other than that, the Dominators as far as I am aware have the same features
The difference is that you have 2 more adjustments on the pedal at the bottom of the direct drive, giving you 2 additional adjustments after you have set your pedal hight
pugmonzzz they’re the same just far less Aluminium and steel they’re much lighter making them cheaper they’re just as good
How do you keep your slave pedal from sliding? I have tried so many things!
i use a thin door mat that i put under it. its similar material to carpet/ velcro. the pedal doesnt slide on it, and the weight of the hi-hat stand stops the actual mat from sliding on wood surfaces
Hey i know this is old af but if you havent already found a solution, look into kickblock. They have one for your pedals and your bass drum to keep it from sliding on your rug.
Vive Le Francaise.
Anyone know why my left pedal is significantly less responsive than the right? Settings are identical.
Are these significantly better than the Dominators (also by Trick)? If so, in what way?

Merci Kevin pour ce video et pour tout l'info. Tu m'aides beaucoup!
