Trick Drums P1V6P Drive Shaft

Got this a few days ago, service from Thomann excellent. I play on a Tama Iron Cobra double and although the drive shaft looked and felt pretty solid, thought to invest in the Trick drive shaft as soon as it became available, mainly to reduce any lag regarding the slave unit. So my thoughts so far are:
- Fits perfectly to my setup, no problems.
- It is heavy and sturdy, looks like a quality piece of equipment.
- First hour of playing felt different, made me doubt a little bit.
- As i continued practising for the next few days, i started noticing the pedals felt more responsive and light under the feet, slave pedal especially.
- Gives me the impression i have to tighten the springs a little bit.
- Needs little time to get used to.
All said, it is a good investment and so far delivers to an extent what it promises. Both pedals feel definitely more equal as far as action is concerned. Smooth is a word that fits for sure... Don't expect miracles though, you have to practise hard to achieve high speed, endurance and consistency.

Got this UDS as a replacement to my Pearl Eliminator Shaft. Works well and I am pretty sure it will work with other pedals too. However, there is one tiny problem - whether the hoop on my kick is too shallow or the upper part of the Trick UDS is too wide, you really have to be presise with how you place main pedal into the hoop. If you place it too "deep" into the kick drum hoop, the UDS starts scratching against the hoops which is rather annoying and affects your performance.
Just one factor to be aware of, otherwise the build quality is five stars.
Thomann shipped same day and tracking number worked all the way to Norway.
I recommend =)

Bought this to replace my stock Tama Iron Cobra linkage after 5+ years of use. I know it a common thing with Iron Cobras that the linkage starts to adopt some play and feels less responsive. Well mine did and it even started rusting on certain parts, however I do not think this affected its function much.

Anyways, I could not get myself to pay Tama close to 100€ for a new linkage, which I knew was bound to encounter the same faith as my old one. So after some research I decided to pay some extra Euro and get the Trick one.

I am super impressed with the quality of this system. Its somewhat heavier than the Tama, but no more play, no more slack, everything as it should be! I am now 4+ years into using it and there are no signs of a comprmise in functionality!

Honestly saved me from buying a new pedal!
