@@mioakiyama4919 Hi Mio
66Samus I’m going to miss the stream tomorrow night so can you please play wash it all away on Saturday please
no i wont play that fuckn crackden of a game..
Tell them to put those fat boards on the A-series
YESS!! I use the longboards and would love to have those bigger boards.
Or.... Just buy the new pedals?
I second this
FullBeard I agree with this
FullBeard , *Fartboards
66Samus signature Axis kickpedal when?
66samus Pearl Snare Singnature? When?
@@voiddrummer1861 66Samus Signature Sticks? When?
Signature 66Samus? When?
66Samus signature dildos? When?
@@8bitmetal That one is coming soon, I guess.
For a split second I thought that you bought Czarcie Kopyto pedals xD
I was guessing Trick :O
BeardedDanishViking same trick pedals are bad ass but I have the a21s and god are they nice
I was wanting some of those and apparently they're a pain in the ass to get shipped to the US, so I just got some Trick Pro 1 Bigfoots instead. I'm extremely happy with the Tricks especially since Sweetwater let me finance them 😂 ,but still would love some of the Czarcie pedals
Those pedals look amazing.
Those pedals look like the metal gods opened the earth and gave man the world's most awesome and most expensive double bass pedal lol. They look sick but I've only seen them via TH-cam. Never met a drummer who's had them but if I didn't already have an expensive pedal I'd probably look into getting it. But I'm happy with my DW9000 / trick drive shaft pedals lol.
Dude, this company must be treating you really really well, because you're one of the few that is not changing to czarcie kopyto and footblaster xD
Axis actually had kind of a crew change recently I heard. Guess that means better customer service and fresh wind into the design team. They're really trying to improve at lightning speed right now, I like it a lot!
@@Ironsvillage good to know! They have much work to do though, specially in Europe. Here in Spain a new longboard axis pedal cost nearly 1000 euros... (while the demon drive or the speedcobra are around 600...)
@@vicsandSTR oh yeah man axis stuff is really hard to come by here in europe ... i have my axis a series pedals for about 10 or 11 years now , took me like 4 years to find and get the axis e-kits aswell and guess what ... the fucking beater of the right pedal broke off because it was hitting the connection part of the double pedal , never found any way to get a replacement for that thing , spend about 720€ for the pedals and i think about 100€ for the e kits that broke after a month ..
@@mikestckl6939 Damm, you really had bad luck D: didn't you have some kind of guarantee?
@@vicsandSTR nah bought em used haha , but all good , i repaired them by now , as a hobby machineist that wasnt a big pain in the ass but still sucked that they broke in the first place and that a replacement hammer costs about 50€ PER PIECE at thomann ...
Very impressive, but can you play snare with kick pedal and bass drum with drumsticks?
Efe Dalgıc that would be lowkey sick
wrong channel
Mink Davie504 doesn’t do those videos anymore he’s all about vlogs, memes, and comedy now
ngl when I saw the title I figured Samus was gonna switch to Czarcie Kopyto
Ikr?
Digital Deathsquid SAMEE
Or ACD
That was my first thought
I thought it was going to be Trick... since this video appeared as a top search result for "trick vs axis pedals"...
Play some Rip and Tear with those badboi yardies.
Dont forget BFG Division
I would love a more affordable Axis pedal.
Get the short boards or buy used!
www.interstatemusic.com/920927-Axis-Sabre-A21-Double-Classic-Black-Pedal-SA212B.aspx
This is about the cheapest you will find. If you can find them in silver they are about $600.
Daniel Gonzalez Just got some for 500! Excellent condition with just minor wear! (A21 lasers that is)
@@Metal-Possum I think it's insane you're claiming the machining on these pedals is simple. You can't just take a block of billet aluminum and make these pedals. They require special tooling for each part. Beside that, CNC machines aren't magic cutting devices, they have to be guided and programmed with a human with machining experience. When you factor labor and equipment cost 1000 dollars is completely reasonable. If you just "get your hands on a pair of Axis pedals and paid somebody to replicate them" It would take them forever, and they would have to get special tooling made.
QuorthonsInferno I own both the A’s and the Lazers, I’m also a CNC machinist by trade. Reverse engineering these pedals, while time consuming, would not be too tough. There’s no special tooling involved for the most part, just dozens of small pieces that would require a few operations. I figure Axis’s shop must be mostly small manual mills and lathes based on the simplicity of the individual parts. Of course, theres a few pieces on the Lazer’s that feature a radius that isn’t on the A’s. To me that suggests a CNC mill, but overall the charm is in their simplicity.
Definitely need to improve on customer service. I sent them an email weeks ago and still haven't got back to me 😭
They are morons. When they finally sent me my parts, they sent half the order and had to run around to get the other half of my order.
10:01 Fart
Helmi Jim LOL
I was hoping to see a pair of Czarcie Kopyto 😈
What are prices for the A's or 21s? I want to start building a kit again I miss drumming so bad.
A Longboards are about $600, I think the 21s are the same or $700. If you have the chance, I’d suggest trying out the GK signature ones. I’ve had mine for almost 4 years and they fucking rule, they’re basically an improved A Longboard
@@acidrain812 is it 700 for one or is that for the set ?
city_of_glass punk rock one
city_of_glass punk rock it’s for a double pedal, which should be what everyone purchases unless they literally want just 1 pedal. It’s super easy to convert the double into 2 singles and you have the option of using it as a double if you needed to
@@acidrain812 ok so if I'm reading this right. I can set it up for my 2 bass drum set up . Right ?
Give me your old pedals or I will un sub
Damn son! The 21's have always interested me because of the foot board, I think offering the symmetrical footboard as an upgrade, or have an option to select either them or the "classic" style footboard would be a great idea. I loved my AL-2s and eventually will purchase axis again in the future and I think having the option between the two footboard styles would be pretty cool, could go either both "classic", both symmetrical, or have the option to have one of each, say your non dominant foot is slightly sloppy enough to where you notice it, but was not noticed in your playing, that extra space where the cut out is in the "classics" could be a game changer, or if one is the type of drummer to play in socks or barefoot, sweat would be less of an issue if you don't like the feeling of grip tape
Alright, Guess it’s finally time to request Baby Beluga on the live stream. With those new pedals you should be able to hit mach 4 on the blasts now so that song will be no problem for you🤪
sucks they shut down operations during covid...i finally have enough money for a pair and I cant find any in stock anywhere fml
As a lifelong ( 12* yrs) A-Longboards player, and no way of ever buying new, a replacement A21 footboard would be INCREDIBLE!! Would love to replace my heel blocks to those sealed bearings too.
As a drummer with severe M.D., these pedals allow my retarded feet to keep playing what I want , and I stand by the brand 100%.
Congrats broski, AXIS for life🤘
hellyeah dude ! replacement parts would be killer , love my axis pedals but it sucks that you can´t get any replacement stuff , at least here in europe ..
When i was running the drum shop at Sam Ash, Axis was one of the BEST companies I dealt with, and they also took good care of me and the shop.
4:06 _This is just ridiculously big! You can probably use whatever technique you want!_
All together now: That's what ...
A longboard to A21 conversion?! Oh yuurrr! Gimmie 🥺
From the thumbnail, I thought you had someone else’s legs up and were in awe with what you saw between one’s legs! 😂 #OhhhhhYyyrrrrrrrrr
I love that spring tension adjustment, that's SO much easier!
I love my A-longboards and my X-longboards, I've been using them for around 10 years now also. But I would be intrigued with a larger footboard. So yes, I would like to see that.
Im catching up on your channel. And this is old. Also. I know nothing except chain drive. But watching this tells me I gotta go to a store and try this brand. Direct. Or this pedal. Thanks!
10:00 sounds like Bleed Messhuggah
I was waiting and hoping for him to at least put on the guitar riff. I was let down...
snap , welcome to the a21/sabre crew . Mr Roddy would be proud
Who was the other company? TRICK?
Definately a big board on the A series.
Yep, Trick. They're also the reason Czarcie Kopyto cannot sell/ship pedals to the USA.
@@wraithstormbringer8502Ahh, I have a set of first launch Trick 1V Bigfoot pedals that had patent pending at the time. How was Axis able to roll out the pedals against the patent? Licensed? Patent expired?
its coming time to upgrade my crappy pdp pedals, and im really eying the laser double pedals, and they are much less expensive than i thought they would be, you're quite the influncer Sam
Demon Drive with the OnTrigger triggers. You will not be disappointed and neither will your wallet.
Heka41 just picked up a pair of A21 like these and it’s a night and day difference lol. I used to have pdp basic pedals too
What are you not a fan of on the pdp pedals?
We will support you through this! No insurance gig for our boy
I’ll keep an eye out for new axis stuff even tho oim late to tha partie. Throw Another Shrimp on the Bahee!
Damn! Those A21s look pretty sic man.
Uhh, no, like, 10% voucher off that pedals or something? I want to switch to direct drive since a few years and I got large feet (size 13) so these pedals are like a dream come true for me.
Also, you know what they say about men with large feet, don't you?
They need big shoes.
Twins😎🤘
I have the original prototypes of the A21 many years ago that Chuck and Karen sent me. Never switched back! Also have the early logo-less silver and back footboards.
Ya, they really need to work on customer service. I emailed them for a replacement part 3 times and still haven't heard back from them after a month. I figured they may have gone out of business. Glad to hear they're still going, but they need to be available to their customers.
Do you still use the A21 double pedal, or did you back to the A series?
I have had my axis pedals for 6 years with extensive use. I would like to see them make the slave beater attachment better and not so awkward, it does lack power compared to other pedals because of the long arm it sits on. Also upgrade the driveshaft to not be round. They are not hard to dial in but other pedals have simplicity down and that's what is pushing them out of the market compared too 10 years ago. I remember when axis were THE pedals now they have been a little complacent and have lost significant market share to Trick and other companies essentially just making their design more efficient. Also when you buy a 900$ set of pedals, include a case for them. My 200$ iron cobras came with a case.
please make the tutorial set in XD i have now the Axis black A double pedal and i want to make things in the right way.
Try VDL in the middle, high spring tension (80% tight or higher), and the beater at 45° away from the head or more (I keep mine a bit further away). That’s about the standard settings for playing fast stuff
@@acidrain812 that will do it! thank a lot :)!!!
Valravn you’re welcome my dude, hope you get to play some badass shit with your pedals. Ik that pedals don’t make the player but they damn sure do help, my double bass playing skyrocketed after getting mine, hopefully they’ll make it easier for you too.
That footboard mod is a great idea. They should also sell the short oats and heel block. There’s times I want to switch.
That thumbnail looks like he is holding up a pair of winter socks.
YES WE WOULD LIKE A BIG SYMMETRICAL FOOTBOARD ON THE A SERIES!!!!!! HOLY SHIT YES
I had a set of Axis A longboards (double pedal) for 10 years which I used all over the place - recordings, touring, etc.
I absolutely LOVED playing them and I had some great times with them. But...
Practically, they were a nightmare;
- the nut for the hoop clamp is directly under the foot board and because it's direct drive, you're fighting it just to get it installed
- there's no 'stop' for the bass drum hoop, which means it's possible to attach it 'too far' and the pedal will rub against the bass drum head, you had to be minutely accurate with it which is a PITA when you're trying to set up quickly on a cramped, dark stage
- the original connecting rod between pedals was round and the only thing securing it against the torque of the left foot were some hex screws clamping into it, these gradually loosened over time and on any number of occasions, it would slip or fail entirely. The later one I had added a drum key screw which allowed it to be more secure, but fundamentally it was still flawed
- adjustment of many parts was done with drum screws that had a plastic cap on it for you to turn by hand. This plastic cap was rubbish in terms of applying enough torque and the parts that used it would slip. Eventually nearly all of them broke on me
- many other parts were secured or adjusted by hex screws and I found them just not up to the job and you'd either slowly wring the keys or the screws
- I came to realise that if something DID break and you were in some random city, the chances of you being able to find parts to repair or replace something was virtually nil
The end result was before every single gig, when I got to the venue I would have to take 20 mins to go over and check or tighten everything to stop things from going wrong. Even at that, I had no end of issues with them over the years.
I see the latest pedals seem to have drum key adjustments in all the key places, that's definitely a step in the right direction. I also should note that many months after I had contacted them for spare parts to no reply, they did reach out to me and really went above and beyond to sort me out, so they are definitely improving on that front.
Glad to see they're putting out new gear, I respect them greatly, but I think I'd struggle to part with the cash for their new gear for anything other than studio use, even with their recent improvements.
Yes, let’s have a wide pedal for the A’s!
Dammit I was going to buy these pedals last year when I saw some of my favorite drummers used them, like Richard Christy.. but not 66Samus! So NOW HERE YOU ARE!
i always had issues with the Axis A Springs, those nasty wingnuts x( it was always hard to watch the springtension and even them to the other pedal. maybe they should change that instead of the pedalsize
Do they have the pedal in a double pedal form?
I'm not a drummer so this might sound ridiculous, but one thing that jumps to mind when I look at these Axis A21's is that they look like they'd create more drag than the last generation. It's a big, fat, flat piece of material. They look like airplane wings. The last Gen are like thin little blades by comparison.
So does it feel like there is some resistance at all, and if not (I'd suspect not) how did they curb that potential issue?
Yeah completely not the case. The cam is doing the work. The pedal board shape almost holds no bearing on that considering your foot covers it anyways.
3:35 Where he actually opens the box
At first I said OH NURR and then I said OH YURR
I sold my Axis pedals and stopped supporting them a few years back because of their total shit customer service. I have owned three pairs of them in my life and toured with two of them. I always wanted their support(especially when I had actual issues with their product) but they wouldn't even reply to an email. Hopefully they hired someone new to handle that aspect of things. Glad they're being better to you.
Can I have your old ones?
I say Hell yes to that and it’ll look more decent as always OHHHHHHHH YURRRRRRRRRR
I've got a whole "collection" of A long boards. 2 of the weakest links: the heel hinge (blocks) and the sonic hammer. The heel hinge slop that develops over time is most annoying. I've tightened them, replaced them, etc. I lost count of how many sonic hammers I've broken - they always break where the threads start on the shaft. I got in the habit of bringing an extra one on gigs, because they broke on me live 2 separate times. Also, I've stabbed the tops of my feet every once in a great while when getting a long throw going, which is painful. I switched over to wrecking balls over a year ago, and so far so good. So it's nice to see they've addressed the heel hinge/block issue, and that they eased up promoting the sonic hammers.
I always used the combination of cut down iron cobra beaters and the lower bar from the sonic hammers. Best of both worlds
Andrew Miller yeah man I was doing the same but I still toasted an Axis shaft that way so I gave up on them.
I play trick pedals, and this pedal looks legit. I may switch over..
What do I think? I want a full cover of Unchained Bahee.
How the video just has 1 dislike..
Samus disliked it himself
smoother, faster, better, Stronger, Work it
, Make it, Do it, Makes us...... now I have daft punk in my head... THANK YOU
865k subscribers. You going to make good money. Hell 175k and I know a guy that quit his very high paying job ,so imagine have that many subscribers. A job that any drummer would love to have.
Axis should consider adding an online shop for replacement parts. My A's had the old heel block design and I found it easier to just order replacements from ACD Unlimited which is based in Austria.
I would also love to see a hoop clamp mechanism that doesn't rely on those rubber feet. They deform quickly and eventually break off.
Dude! First of all, congrats because your channel is growing!! And that's all... I'm here just to congratulate you! I'm genuinely happy for you! 😀👍
Very Impressive..... but whens the Polish Tanks video coming out huh?
3:36 that melodic Ohyurr is like Adam Neely's the lick in B.C
Love it! Hahaha
I’d try it if I didn’t have to spend a lot of money but I don’t think i would ever use an ultra wide pedalboard
"New"? Haven't those pedals been around for like almost 10 years? I'm confused.
Ur Axis A21 laserboard pedal is awesome bro 😍😍
But I would like to know your thoughts on TRICK PRO 1V Longboard pedal????
BLAHHH! IM FREAKIN EXCITED!
I bought mine on their ebay store like 14 years ago. it was the only place i could find them in canada ehh!
Yes, Big and Wide Footboard is Better for Big Foot like Me, I need to play without shoes, My Large Foot don't fit on the Pedals, Yes I had the 2' Old AXIS X,, awesome and great to play, But I need to Get The Foot Board Bigger./ I hope they Come with an Idea for all the Pedals, You Can Used Small and Large Footboard on the same Pedals.
“Just insane and I can’t complain!”
Can you make a song with Davie504? That would be fun. Epic -> OHHH YURRRRRR
What a second...left is loose??
Mind blown!! 💥💥
"only sponsors I can get behind" ITS A SHIT GAME 😂😂😂
can you buy the heal blocks by themselves? mine are sooooo wobbly its so bad and the ACD unlimited ones are 180AUD (125USD) which is a bit ridiculous.
Axis''s website really sucks, in 2021 you really still have only one picture of each pedal? no close-ups or differant angles?
Sweet Axis A & 21 drum pedals. Anyone else use/have them? If not, why not, just curious, Thanks.
DRUM QUESTION.
W
hy would they not just put a small gear on that pin drive to adjust it spring tension of the foot pedal I make it so it is remote control for and variable pitch on the base pedal?
Here I am double chain Gibraltar trying to get up to 120bm....
What video editing software do you use? I'm trying to upgrade from my VSDC but I don't know what to go with...
Holy shit those boards are amazing. Wish I could afford them though...
You should play Iron Maiden Legacy Of The Beast. Its actual pretty fucking good. Has its goods and bads but it's a good ass game.
You’re a great drummer with tons of skill. You’re funny and articulate. That being said, both your personality and your look seems like Dave grohl and weird Al had a baby. No offense. I think it’s a hilarious observation. Don’t take it the wrong way.
Regarding your question....very much interested in changing the board!
Too bad Axis is totally shut down due to being in CA during covid. I couldn't find the pedals I wanted anywhere and ended up buying two Trick Bigfoots.
Why he never uses them? What did i miss? Do they suck?
I'm a new subscriber but I don't "get" most of your memes/in-jokes. Is there a video that explains some of them? Keep up the good work!
Am I the only metal drummer who can't use direct drive pedals worth a shit? I borrowed a pair of Axis pedals from a friend and after 2 weeks I just couldn't get use to the feel. So back to my Tama Speed Cobras.
I’ve really wanted a pair of A21 Lasers for a while now but unfortunately haven’t found any on sale in the UK where I live 🙁 (unless you get ‘em over there some other way that I don’t know of? 🤷🏻♂️)
I'm playing Axis pedals for 13 years. And I want beater angle adjustment (separately from footboard angle) like in Trick or Kopyto. I want new triggers like footblaster or laser triggers. I want new beater holder, my beaters started falling out in NEW pedals, because beater holders are made of brass and steel screw with brass are bad couple.
Why they made footboards so wide in the heel zone? To play swivel by heel?)
axis are the best pedals my friend Mike still holds the WFD fastest feet record he used Axis Longboards.. and the guy who held the record before him, Tim Waterson, also uses Axis Longboards. oh mike has a new channel you should follow each other :) he's a really nice guy he doesn't blast as much anymore but i have seen him cover Hammer down the Nails by Vital Remains which is fucking insane. lol th-cam.com/users/MikeMachinevideos
So can I get those wide foot boards for my A21 Sabres? My sabres have the regular footboards, and I think they are fucking annoying...
you should me these pedals🤣 i don't have that kinda of money......ohh yurrr
Would you want to donate your old bass pedals to me. I'm poor and can't afford any good long board pedals. I'm still playing on DW2000. Help a fellow drummer out. SeX
Is AXIS asking if we would be intrested in buying new A21's with a symetrical foot board,, or symetry foot boards that can be attached to our A21's to up grade them??? spent a g last year on Roddys, not in the budget to get a whole new set.....Ive been Vocal about axis making a remote hihat, but no one listens prefrably that connects, to making one unit of pedals
Interesting, I have never played with direct drive -pedals, nor long boards - would love to try ones, but haven't seem them much over here... Maybe someday. Maybe.
You forget to tell in the video , the most importand “THE PRICE“ of one of them .... for that price you buy a good guitar , too !
Please, we need more symmetrical foot pedals, as a lefty drummer, whenever i have a jazz gig and i don't want to listen to the purists bitch and moan because my gear "Looks weird".
Man your old pedals are my dream pedals!!! But the new ones look so fucking metal. Congrats!
I currently have DW and PDP pedals that I switch out quite a lot. I really would like to get direct drive pedals. I do like the look of Axis pedals and the wide foot board on the A21 looks badass. I would like it to be a standard on all pedals of the Axis brand. Another company I am interested in trying is Trick. www.trickdrums.com/pedals/
I truly enjoy your content.
Hey there, whatcha gonna do with those old pedals? Maybe wanna help out your favorite disabled veteran newb drummer that you've never heard of? I sure could use them. Keep blasting!
The A21 bearing assembly disintegrated after 5 years. Just fell apart at a show. They are fast pedals for sure but durability is nonexistent!
Had the same iron cobra power glides for 13 years now. Going above 180 is annoying. Tell them to make a more affordable one ffs.
