Ahead Switch Kick - Adapter Shaft

About Switch Kick Adapter Shaft

This adapter shaft is the mainstay of the Switch Kick system. You therefore need to have this to be able to mount the many different beater head types.

If you have already bought the Switch Kick Two Way bass beater (starter kit), you already have the adapter shaft and thus do not need to buy it separately.

What is Switch Kick?

Switch Kick is a different type of bass drum beater. On the Switch Kick system, you can change the beater head itself in a few seconds, which also opens up the possibility of adapting your bass drum sound to the individual track you play - just like you do with your drumsticks, rods and whiskers.

The system is made up of two parts:

• The fixed adapter shaft
• A beater head - according to your own wishes

There are a number of different beater heads for the system - all with the aim of giving you different tonal possibilities.

How to change the beater in less than 5 seconds

How to mount the beater
