Modding a softpad>>

[ballpark_69]

I have my pump it up softpad taped down to plywood and it works great. Recently, my mymybox blueshark ignition pad's left arrow broke. If I get a pelican softpad from walmart and tape it down to plywood, will it work for 10 footers? Or does it just suck?

from the pelican pad i tried, it just takes some time to get used to the pad. after that, you 'should' be able to pass 10s.

I wouldn't recommend Pelican. I've never bought a working product from them.

Word on the street is that Pelicans are junk.

I've forgotten how nazi Wal-Mart is on returns...be sure to check that out before you buy from them.

I'm talking more along the lines of opened/unopened, usage, etc. I seem to remember Wal-Mart having a particular policy about electronics and whatnot.

Your results may vary.

friend ofmine found a pellet gun in his back yard shook the worst of the dirt from it and came away with a 30$ wal mart credit

K, I guess my blueshark works now that I took the foam out. I still need a good doubles setup though, singles on any level has become too easy now that I've been playing Pump so much.

ok. dont use ply wood. unless you have some type of dense carpet.(i mean hardcore dense like pavenemt dense.)

i just put it down on my carpet and use my softmat.
absolutley no sliding in my experiance
and i use a bar and play 11 footer and there is absolutley no slidage.(word?)


now as for the Pelican
thats the pad i was raised on and it still works like a dream.
there ARE lemons but most are great.
ive AA'd a few songs and virtually no pad misses, just person misses.

i hope i helped.

When life hands me lemons I make lemonade. The lemonade is terrible, but it's still lemonade.

Taping acrylic over the pad works if you've got hard floor, it's like playing on a super flat hard pad. I think thick enough acrylic would work on carpet to.
