Is there a secret part to keep the left kick pedal on my dw 7000 double bass pedal from moving....I have a shitload of velcro under it and I am on a drum rug.
Someone help it is so fucking annoying

There should be spurs on it that will come out via screw. Find those.

spurs like on the back of dog the bounty hunters boots.

I am so lazy I have never looked and I have only played drums for a week
thanks space train

Or you could just get a single kick pedal and have lots of seizures.

If the velcro isn't working, and the spurs don't keep your pedal from pushing forward, some drum companies manufacture a special plate to which you can attach both the slave pedal and your hi-hat stand, keeping them mounted together. That should keep the slave pedal from moving.

if u have a 3 legged hi-hat stand i used to just turn the legs sideways(and break whatever stopped that from happening) and put it behind the leg on the right...just enough so the chain wont rub. now i have one of the 2 leg stands and it makes it even easier.

btw your velcro idea should work better than all these... maybe u should try putting the hooked side of the velcro on the actual pedal....?

a 10 lb weight works wonders.

Buy Axis pedals.

buy another bass drum

DW9000's dont do that.

the 7000's are fine
there is not much difference.

well....ya there is actually, not to be a dink, but the 9000's feature a shitload of 'better' components, like the free floating rotor, and infinite cam adjustment's, just to name a few.

If you are playing on a wood floor(?) you could drill some stop screws in there, or a weight really does work wonders.
If you mean it's doing this live, then I would say to build a floorplate with industrial grade velcro, that connects to something solid (bass drum, stand)

*hi hat stand

screw the velcro and the weights and hihat shit. Your bass drums should have spurs at the end of the leg for when you are on carpets. They should be out enought to catch in the carpet. If they do have spurs then set the bass drum legs forward as to resist your foot pushing the bass drum. This way the bass drum will hold your pedal on the rim.

Everything powerkok says. These pedals are great. I have the dbl and a single 9000 series. I bought these after i got a iron cobra and they didnt work for me.
