The DW 9000 Series double kick drum pedal represents the company's flagship approach to bass drum articulation, combining patented mechanical innovations with the kind of stability that touring professionals demand. At its core sits the Infinitely Adjustable Cam system, which permits seamless transitions between Accelerator and Turbo–style sprocket ratios without swapping components. This flexibility allows drummers to dial in feel and response characteristics that suit everything from jazz brushwork to metal double–bass assault, all within a single pedal assembly.
Construction centres on three key technologies: the Tri–Pivot Toe Clamp grips any diameter bass drum counter hoop with three self–aligning rubber pads, whilst the Delta II Ball Bearing Hinge pairs lightweight extruded aluminium with high–grade bearings for longevity under repeated use. The Single Post Casting design, unique to the 9002 model, repositions the auxiliary pedal closer to the hi–hat—reducing foot travel and enabling near–simultaneous operation of both pedals. A Non–Slip Rubber Grip Base Plate anchors the entire mechanism to the floor, maintaining consistent feel across studio and stage environments. The deluxe nylon carrying case provides transport protection for the pedal assembly and all components.
Rhythm section players operating in both fixed–kit and portable–rig contexts will find the 9000 Series addresses the core tension between customisability and stability. The precision–engineered linkage delivers consistent stroke response from the left auxiliary pedal, critical for players developing independent left–foot technique or combining simultaneous kick patterns with hi–hat control.
