14:58 finally someone who did with this double pedal what I was looking for. Thank you so much!

I just snatched one used/mint for half price of new. Beaters were adjusted all the way up and springs cranked all the way tight, no wonder prev owner sold it. Great review, ty

I own this pedal. There are more adjustments available on this pedal. Independent beater and foot board angle adjustments. 1/4 turn locking spring tensioner. Gauges built in to the body of the pedals to allow you to record your adjustments. Smooth, quick and completely silent.

I own these pedals. Depending on your preference of chain drive or direct, this pedal gives you some many options. Spring tension, Footboard adjustment, cam adjustment, durability, light, quick response, wide & long foot board. Overall, a great quality pedal. I recommend trying it. Great video brother 👍

after a lot of research, this pedal seems the best mix of quality and price so i ordered double direct drive yesterday. this video was useful in my investigations so thankyou.

Do you feel like these are light and/or soft like a lot of people describe Axis pedals to be?

Great video, thanks for making. thinking of buying these, just having a hard time decide direct drive or chain.

Nice review man , detailed and not boring my add ass to death cheers .

Awsome detailed review. Cheers.

Great video thanks man 🙏

Sorry, I want ask something. This pedal long board or medium board?

I bought these pedals today, direct drive version. I chose them over the pearl demon drive p3002d. There was a few things I just liked better. One being the spring tension adjustment couldn't be simpler. Also, I like the fact that it's a fairly long board with a heel plate. If you put the demon drive into longboard configuration? You lose the heel plate. I think the quality is equal or even maybe higher than the pearl and it's over $200 cheaper.

great review. does the main pedal ever slide? i feel as though the rubber clamp and the adjustment key to tighten the pedal on the drum hoop seem to be top of the line. do u agree?

loving the look of this pedal, thinking Im about to buy it to replace my dw 9002s since Ive lost the slave pedal on it, the only thing I wish more companies did like dw is to put a beater attachment on the slave pedal.

im waiting on my direct double yamaha fp9-d. arrives wednesday. yay

That’s so crazy, my homie used to let me use his house to practice, rent free, he was a 450 pro-class rider! Yamaha YZ. We used to push each other to be greater everyday, weather it was workout, practice, track day. This pedal makes too much sense!

15:33 the left pedals shaft on the Yamaha is at a more straighter angle than the DW... I use an Eliminator and the Left is smoother when I turn the shaft into a straight line, no angles. :)

I may have missed it but you said you prefer a chain drive? If so, why did you choose this direct drive model?

Great video Subscribed

At about 13:00 in, you say that the 4 grip spikes don't seem to work very well. They work beautifully for me. I play on a carpeted mat and this is the first double pedal I've had in the 25+ years I've been playing that has a secondary pedal that stays precisely where I put it. Even my angle stays the same. It's due to the 2 extra spikes by the heel.

Hi @Leona197 is the direct drive version can be converted to chain/strap? And how is the FP9 driveshaft compared to trick shafts(if ever you have experience with them)

What do you think of these compared to the Pearl Demon Drives?

I'm torn between choosing a pedal - ive used Tama speed cobras for the past 10 years. the original speed cobras silver double pedal. Now im getting to the point where they arent serving me anymore and I feel like im not getting the most i want out of my feet. there is just something off........so im gonna get a new pedal. i feel the long board of the speed cobras sometimes are too "loose" like its hard to fully control the pedal and ive tried adjusting everything and changing up bass drum techniques. I'm convinced at this point to get a new pedal.............Now i use Yamaha everything for hardware. CS865 stands, Hs1200 high hat and SS950 - I'm in love with all of them so happy.......now is this pedal also the way to go? I will be trying the single pedal at a shop tomorrow, and thinking about the FP9's, the DW 9000 or Pearl Eliminators....... Saw some complaints about the plastic here and that yamaha is over priced. What are your thoughts on this? The attention to detail is amazing and the adjustable chain on the side is such a great feature. that was only one example you showed to the DW9000, what makes them the superior pedal. Can you only use rounded beaters? I'm a big fan of the iron cobra tama beaters (with the rounded felt), i really like the attack they give. Can you install any beaters on this or is it only the rounded ones?

How does this pedal compare to the trick Dominator?, Thanks, Anthony

If I have the chain drive ones can I convert them to direct drive?

Do these only come in longboard?

You play these pedals barefoot. Do you feel like the pedals slip under your feet since there are no rough anti-slip patches on there?

I just received one of these Yamaha Direct Drive pedals and am trying it out now. In comparing to my DW 5000, so far the pedal beater doesn't have as much power when hitting the head. Maybe I need to play with the adjustments some more. Will have to see. I don't want to put this pedal down, but initial impressions is I'm not overly impressed. I can only compare it to a DW 5000 chain drive.

I agree. I can’t believe that tama didn’t upgrade their drive shaft on the dyna sync. Whether you get a tama 600 series iron cobra, the cheaper iron cobra or a dyna sync you are getting the same drive shaft essentially just in silver instead of black. and it’s like 50 bucks more than the Yamaha by me.

can you swap it into a lefty or vice versa?

Is it longboard?

If you prefer the chain version, why do you have the DD?

Your comparison starting at 15:00 would be meaningful only if you positioned both Yamaha and DW main and slave pedals at exactly the same angle in relation to the drive shaft. The Cardan joint is not a constant-velocity joint and it doesn't transmit energy in a linear fashion, so it produces resistance that grows as you increase the angle between the pedal axis and the shaft. In your video the DW slave pedal is under a much more extreme angle than Yamaha, so no wonder it stops swinging much faster.

Iggor cavalera also owns this

I've been playing Yamaha flying dragon for 15 years and it's a great pedal. I was thinking to upgrade to this one but I don't see the value. It looks great, but for me in that price range if you give me double pedal that can't be converted into two single pedals it's a big no no. I play two kick drums so I want a pedal that can do that. The Flying dragon had that option, so I can only presume it's an marketing decision. Just stupid.

Diy' home made ...can be , or not to be ....( projects soon...)

You’re lucky you got jacked calves. Calves are the hardest muscle to get to grow if you don’t naturally have large ones by nature.

Yamaha and Tama still can't make double pedals with both beaters in the center of the head. The slave is always off to the left. Axis too.

Dude, you’ve been playing for 20yrs???
