Product Description

The Galapagos Pad is our biggest drum pad yet, and named after the Galapagos Tortoise. 

The wooden base of the pad is made of Forescolor, an innovative improvement to Medium Density Fiberboard. Forescolor is naturally water resistant, fire retardant, and colored throughout (so if you drop your pad, that chip in the corner will still be the same color).

The top of the pad features a natural gum rubber, with a vinyl laminate that is uniquely different from the standard hard top mylar laminates. The vinyl laminate retains much of the feel and rebound of the gum rubber, while adding articulation to each stroke. 

The bottom of the Galapagos pad features a recycled rubber surface. The recycled rubber is great for gripping the surface it is on while the pad is in heavy use. The rubber is also just a little bit harder and thinner than the topside playing surface, while still offering rebound and quite a bit more articulation. This makes the bottom side perfect for chopping out, or when you need to draw a little more sound out of your playing.

Product Info:

  • Playing surface is 11" diameter top and bottom
  • Pad weight is approximately 4 lbs.
  • Unique designs
  • Water resistant
  • Fire retardant
  • Colored throughout
  • 2 sided playing surface: gum rubber top, recycled rubber bottom

Excellent Quality Pad

Got it for my kids, my son wrote this review: The Galapagos pad exceeds all of my expectations. The front is quiet and easy to play on, while the back offers a louder sound that is more articulate. It’s perfect for practicing marching and concert snare, or just to chop out. Not only that but the custom logo on the front is an awesome touch.

My new go-to practice pad

The Galapagos pad is the perfect combination of simplicity and innovation. The soft mylar playing surface over top of gum rubber gives a great responsive surface to practice on and the hard rubber/cork back surface is super articulate. I equate the pad to if you took all the best things about the evans real feel pad and combined it with all the best things about the vic firth stock pad. AND its customizable to your visual liking! Its a great pad supporting a great cause!

Galapagos Custom Pad: Satisfied and Then Some

What I enjoy most about the 2-sided pad is that it is the closest feel to a concert and marching head I've experienced with any pad to date. The custom print job is also a bonus in this day and age where custom pads are harder to find.
