    I’m actually gonna get this in a few days, I’m playing a show next week with my band and my driveshaft on my dw9000 has a lot of play in it and for the longest time I thought it was just me or that my left foot was weaker but come to find out it was the driveshaft the whole time. Thank you!

Both of them (Trick and Z-link) do make a lot if difference compared with traditional shafts. I have no idea why DW still doest't have this technolody adopted.

    Hi dude. I have a DW 9000 too. I owned it like 11 years ago so the shaft is so shaky already. I sent it to repair but they did not fix it as good as I spected. I am thinking in buying a new shaft and leave the otherone as a backup shaft. This Trick shaft looks so good, but I wonder what the exactle model is, just to be sure that will be compatible with my DW 9000 pedal. I am asking this because I saw a photo of a Trick shaft where the connection to pedal seems to be different. Thank you and hope you read this

      Francisco Alvillar that's very true... but this shows that without even changing that the shaft makes a huge difference. Some people don't like to tight or to loose. And now the spring rates are the same still for the same feel left and right. But I do agree spring tension can make up for some bad shaft play.

    • @normanwilmoth7404
      @normanwilmoth7404 5 лет назад +1

      Yes spring tension has a role in the response but that's just one aspect of the adjusting of a pedal but its common drummer knowledge most of your slave pedal lag comes from the quality of the driveshaft. I own a new iron coba and used every possible spring tension possibly but the slave was tolerable but never just right until I put this trick shaft on and boom with no adjustments it was perfect balance! Felt like playing two high quality singles, worth every penny and it's the best upgrade for any double setup period.

Since my last post I was using an older model iron cobra rolling glide but have since upgraded to the newest double speed cobra 910s but I ditched the factory drive shaft and used the trick and now my footwork is on a new level all around. The current setup I'm using is off the chain and I didn't break the bank. Love my new speed cobra's with the trick driveshaft, they feel like two singles no lie🔥 awesome setup for the money and that combination I'm using blows the 9000s out of the water.

I can say this the speed cobra's are at a great price point and once you add the trick driveshaft you're still coming out cheaper than a standard set of 9000s. There both great pedals though👍

    @thomasjameson5761 7 лет назад +2

    Good video, but why exactly should be surprised here that a heavier shaft would retain movement for longer? It has more weight to it and more centrifugal force, so of course it's going to be moving for a longer period.
    That being said, it does seem as though it is much more heavy duty. I too am disappointed in the design of DW's drive shaft (my original broke near the joint pretty early on, and a replacement is about $90).
    Before I open my second pair of DW 9000s, I will probably do an in-store comparison before buying them. Thanks for alerting me of this Trick Shaft.

    • @Dave-lr2wo

      Let's add the fact that this timing "test" is subject to huge variations.

    • @purpledc1
      @purpledc1 6 лет назад +2

      Incorrect. The heavier drive shaft does not help keep the pedal moving. Adding more weight makes something harder to move. The only way the extra weight would be advantageous for keeping the pedal moving would be if it was placed in a position to have leverage to create centrifugal force. But the drive shaft placement and its design as well as the axis it rotates on lends nothing in the way of centrifugal force. The beater weight in this instance would be more likely to contribute. The real reason the trick drive shaft keeps the pedal going longer is because no energy is lost via the tricks superior bearing joints. When you have play in the joints, every cycle back and forth energy and momentum is lost as the pieces knock into each other. Solidify that area and the energy stays where you want it. in the beater and spring mech.

      But what im saying is that its negligible when you consider the mass at the end of a beater. A drive shaft rotating on its axis imho is barely contributing. Take it off ans swing it from one end sure. But that's not its natural path of motion on a kick pedal. @@Nefville

    This might be a stupid question, but do you know if the Trick drive shaft (P1V6 Drive Shaft) work as a replacement for a Tama Speed Cobra double pedal? I mean, the slave side is always gonna be a bit behind, but it's a bit too much for my taste.

    Iv bent the rods during my travels with the many gigs that I’ve done with the DW 9000 and it’s frustrating because your screwed. Iv bent them back and thank god I have a machine shop but a $600 pedal should be prime gear. Anyways good vid. I’m just gonna start playing air drums since I’m tired of the bullshit. Wish me luck👍

      I know this a late reply you probably have already figured it out..for what its worth, they come in 2 models (the Trick drive shaft) 1 for the Tama& Pearl pedals and another 1 solely for DW Pedals, so you just gotta choose the Tama ones!

  • @larrytate1657
    @larrytate1657 8 лет назад

    This is why I don't like DW. I paid 600 bucks for my 9002 and I'd have to spend another 130 for another company's drive shaft for the slave to feel good. Have you tried the speed Cobras or Yamaha direct drive? I'm considering one of them. I wonder if this shaft would work on the Yamaha too?

    • @ZackZweifel
      @ZackZweifel  8 лет назад +1

      +Larry Tate yeah it does make me dissapointed that I spent so much on these pedals and then realized by spending more on just a shaft it improves them tremendously. they spend all this R&D time on this floating drive etc etc yet have never once improved their old drives haft. as for spring tension I would sale on a percentage scale 100% being tightest 0 being loose I have mine around 65%.

    • @larrytate1657
      @larrytate1657 7 лет назад

    Sometimes I wonder if these people make up stories about how bad something is. "My drive shaft has literally fallen off when playing" the only way it would do that is if you don't regularly check your gear after playing a few times. I've been using the 5000's for awhile and I've never had any issues like this guy claims..

    • @ZackZweifel
      @ZackZweifel  8 лет назад +4

      I literally play every weekend sometimes twice a weekend on a 10 piece kit. there's a lot to put together and sometimes you forget to tighten things when in a rush. it has literally happen to me and it's unfortunate but true. play 100 shows a year and see how many times you forget something just tightening that one tensioner.

    • @nathandrums0
      @nathandrums0 8 лет назад +4

      +Zack Zweifel I play every weekend as well, (twice including a 2 hour band practice) and I find the time, not trying to start anything at all! I would just think it's common sense to check stuff wether you're at home or waiting around wherever you're playing.

    • @VaughnDingus
      @VaughnDingus 6 лет назад +2

    • @andyham6094
      @andyham6094 6 лет назад +1

      NathanDrums I’m with u on this, I play numerous hours every single day by myself and then rehearsals and practice and shows every week with my 2 bands and I have never forgot to tighten the lugs on my pedal. That’s pretty common sense to throw the rod and beaters on and not tighten. It’s second hand nature and instinct to automatically tighten down the nuts tight as possible. If your serious about ur music career and look at it as such and are professional about it, u check all your gear no matter what. tighten down every piece on every stand, pedals, throne, heads, sticks, everything. Here in bmore we only get 10-15 minute changeover between bands so I set all my shit up backstage when the band before us starts their set and have everything ready to go. If your opening that’s even more time to get ur stuff together with no rush from load in time until doors open which is usually couple hours in between with plenty of time to spare. I can understand shit happens and shit breaks but I’ve never forgotten to tighten something especially my pedals.

My 9000´s have that super annoying play on the u-joints, it´s making me crazy. They really need to design a better shaft.
