The Heavy Hitter Slim Pad by Vic Firth features a “slim” 1/8″ gum rubber pad on a 12″ sturdy wooden base. The extra thin 1/8″ gum rubber pad gives the player a more accurate feel of a high tensioned marching snare. It’s the perfect size and weight to throw in a backpack for the drummer on the go.

14 mil Mylar laminates for the Slim Pad are also available, giving the player maximum articulation and a more similar feel to a Kevlar drumhead.
