KickBlock Bass Drum Anchor – Ultra-Grip Technology – Stage Black

I originally thought it would be about the same weight of a similarly sized 2x4 piece of wood but it feels surprisingly light. Despite its weight, when I try to take it home from church it’s a struggle to get it off the carpet. I use it for two different types of heavy hitting. At church, we have a classic, very light, flat base snare stand that moves from its proper location to my lap in 1/4 of a song. With the kick block wedged between the two legs facing me, the basket goes nowhere. I also play for a college pep band where we have to hit extremely hard just to be heard WITH the support of a medium sized sound system. When we’re in the stands I use ratchet straps to keep the bass drum from flying off the scaffolding we play on. When we traveled, I used the kick block and even our hardest kicker had no issues with kick drum creep. Here are some of my cons what in no way outweigh the pros. It’s fairly large and just barely fits in the water bottle pocket of my large backpack. Where this is a struggle is when there’s limited depth space for the drum kit, however that may be where the pedal block may be a better solution. I’m sure many people have been in the situation where the kick is at the edge or a riser and their seat is at the edge of the other end and there’s just absolutely no space for it in scenarios like that. It also doesn’t do anything about left to right movement but that can be solved with a better kick drum pedal with Velcro on the bottom. Another issue is that I wish it was taller since we have to lower the kick at pep band but as it is it’s, just the right height to be portable so I understand why it isn’t. Overall, it’s a great product and if I can actually get my hands on one, I’d really like to see if the pedal blocks would fit my needs better.

Great quality and really holds my bass drum in place. I did have to switch drum rugs because mine didn’t hold Velcro very well but that’s not a fault with the product at all. Definitely worth the investment to keep your drums in place while also protecting the finish on them.

Totally stops the kit creep. What else do you need to say?

This is awesome for any drummer with a heavy bass foot! I have a set up on carpet and my kit would always walk away from me anytime I played a couple songs. I'm on the Praise and Worship team for my church, so the drums definitely get out to use. With that said now after the easy installation I have NEVER had another problem. With the high quality Velcro, there is absolutely no movement of my entire kit. Awesome product

This anchor really helps prevent bass drum creep. I even put it slightly to the side so the bass mic stand can fit as well. I highly recommend this product.

Me encantó ,no tienen que comprar una alfombra ,si ya la tienen ,pongan a la alfombra una tira de Velcro comercial ,y se mantiene pegado ,les muestro cómo luce .

I didn't see any reviews mentioning metal or double kick pedal, just country or rock gigs, so I decided to test it for the good of mankind. After a full week of recording machine gun kicks at high speed for my Prog metal band, I can happily say I'm VERY impressed. My 40 pound concrete block I used before doesn't come close to this tiny foam brick. Kick hasn't moved a CENTIMETER since the block. Applied to a large Roadrunner rug from Guitar Center. Happy custy, great product.

THIS KICK BLOCKER DOES NOT WORK!!!!! I bought this and tried to put it to use the next day at a paid professional gig, and let me just say that 1, it is SUPER light weight, cheap, the Velcro is NOT heavy duty and it DOES NOT stick and stay in place which COMPLETELY DEFEATS the purpose. I do NOT recommend that anyone purchase this! I will be returning.

We are a recording studio and have several drummers come through. We have had to use sandbags on some drummers as the kick would move. This block is solid, looks nice, and replaces having to use the sandbags. One should note though you need a drum rug specifically (or a rug that works with velcro). We originally had a Persian Rug that was not velcro compatible and the block did nothing as it could not attach to the fibers.

was skeptical at first as i’m a heavy kicker but works great and my kit doesn’t move anymore! would definitely recommend

Funciona muy bien para bloquear el bass drum a la alfombra, aun si la alfombra es delgadaba, cumple su función.

These are sweet! They’re light and compact, and easy to throw in your cymbal bag. As long as you have a Velcro compatible rug (I got a cheap thin one at a hardware store) it solves all of your issues and your bass drum and hihats stay put. I highly recommend!

Thank you, great product
