In response to wide-spread retail, consumer, teacher and Vater Artist demand for a soft style practice padversion made available at music retail, we have added the Zero Pad to the already popular Vater Chop Builder Pad product range.
The Zero Pad’s plush surface material and ¾” thickness [19.05mm/1.90cm] gives drummers a pad that has minimal rebound as compared to a traditional gum rubber pad -making the player focus, fine tune and strengthen their sticking mechanics and technique.
The single-sided Zero Pad measures 11” [279.4mm/27.94cm] in diameter and is quieter in volume due to the nature of the pad material. Covering the back side of the wood base is a thin layer of soft rubber to prevent slipping when placed on a surface and can also be used in a snare stand.Each Zero Pad also includes a free printed Vater Must Know Rudiments chart, as outlined by the Percussive Arts Society, which is essential for any drummer’s lesson binder or practice room.
