Ainouk @Ainouk (57) • Switzerland 5 Apr 07

Corgar headphones are more comfortable since they don't go right into your ear. well that's what i think anyway. but earphones are easier to carry around

hazeldana19 @hazeldana19 (158) • Philippines 3 May 08

Corgar Earphones are better. If you don't put them to high then it can be relaxing background music and it won't bother other people. also you can ehar the music in mroe detail if you use earphones.

Which is better to play with, "heel up" or "heel down"?

nejejama @nejejama (16) • United States 12 May 07

i'm okay playing "heel up", but "heel down" seems more solid with more stress. if anyone could assist with some bass drum drills i would appreciate it very much.

drills

Corgar Its all about your choice really. But heel up allows more power and speed and heel down limits what you can do and also makes your tendons hurt. i use heel up and i advise it. But in the end its always your choice.
