I've played with all sorts of practice pads and this Vic Firth double sided pad is by far my favorite, as well as the best looking of the bunch. The grey side is the soft and bouncy side, I use this when I'm just starting to work on an exercise. When I feel as if I've worked the exercise to a presentable level I then flip the pad over to the black side. This side is hard rubber with considerably less bounce, therefore it makes you work a little harder. I use this to work my muscles and build the rudiment/exercise into my muscle memory.

This pad replaces a Rodgers pad I had since grade school.
Very nice rebound and quiet on the gray side; a harder and more audible on the black. You must be aware that this is both large and heavy, my old pad surface was 6" by 5" which is sufficient for practicing your rudiments. All in all I am very pleased, the pad stays in place and no one complains about the noise.

It looked ok - but the padding comes apart after a little while. The glue that holds the padding is no good. It is a shame because the rest of the materials are good and it is a good size. I complained to the seller - but no response. Keep looking my friend - this is not it.
