  • Patent number: 6710237
    Abstract: A drum pedal for enhanced mating of a drummer's foot is disclosed. In a preferred embodiment, a foot pad is employed for attachment to a pedal of a drum having an upwardly extending protrusion that enables improved sensory perception to properly locate a drummer's foot and to enable learning and consistently applying a force to a sweet spot during drumming. The foot pad also includes shock absorption to reduce the negative effects of repeated impact to the user's foot during drumming. A variety of embodiments include traction treads, a plurality of protrusions or built up portions in different respective locations of the footpad, and an additional stiffening layer to effectively widen the foot pedal. A method of use includes locating the foot pad on a the foot pedal, and in particular locating a protrusion on the foot pedal to enable consistent drumming by improved sensory perception and positioning of a drummer's foot during drumming.
