collapse expand iconDescription

The Aquarian Super Kick I Drumhead 22" delivers a clear, balanced tone with chest-thumping low end. Aquarian's patented Floating Muffling System features a narrow felt muffle ring attached to the backside of the medium-weight drumhead to produce a tight, defined bass drum sound with plenty of punch. Built to withstand the demands of heavy-hitting rock and metal drummers, this single-ply drumhead offers durability and consistency gig after gig. The Super Kick I is a high-performance drumhead upgrade for drummers wanting focused low-end response and power.

Floating Muffling System Provides Controlled Low-End Response

At the heart of the Super Kick I's powerful tone is Aquarian's Floating Muffling System. The narrow felt muffle ring attached to the backside of the drumhead mutes unwanted overtones to produce a tight, controlled bass drum sound with clearly articulated low end. You can achieve a range of sounds by adjusting the muffle ring's positioning on the drumhead. For maximum volume and projection, center the muffle ring. Shift it closer to the edge of the drumhead for a punchier, more focused tone. With the Super Kick I, you have a versatile tool for crafting their perfect kick drum sound.

Single-Ply Clarity and Medium Weight for Balance of Tone

The Super Kick I features a single ply of medium-weight Aquarian film for a clear, open tone with balanced highs, mids and lows. The medium-weight film provides enough durability and projection for pounding rock drummers yet with sufficient warmth, resonance and sensitivity for drummers wanting a more natural acoustic sound. The single ply enhances clarity and articulation, allowing drummers to achieve a kick drum tone that cuts through a mix with punch and definition.

Rugged Build Quality for Demanding Drummers

Aquarian designs the Super Kick I to handle the demands of heavy-hitting drummers, night after night. The medium-weight Aquarian film is highly resistant to dents, tears and wear, providing durability and consistency. The sturdy muffle ring also withstands repeated strikes without shifting out of place. For drummers wanting a hard-working kick drumhead to keep up with an aggressive playing style, the Super Kick I delivers rock-solid performance and reliability.

    This head is amazing! I have used Remo and Evans and have never gotten the sound I wanted from them. I put this and, and bam no need for the pillow or blanket. I also really like the look of this head on my bass drum. It feels great and I promise you wont regret buying this!

    This bass drum head is what I've been using on the batter side of my bass since the mid to late 90's. I use a Remo Powerstroke3, (usually with a five or four inch port cut out), for the resonant head and THAT'S IT! No internal muffling is needed. There's nothing else I do, with the exception of putting a flam pad for my bass drum beater to hit. Great head and long lasting.

    I have an old set of Ludwig drums I bought in 1975. They still look great but I couldn't get the sound I wanted out of the 24" x 14" bass drum. The old head was a Remo pin stripe and sounded like hitting an old box plus I had pillows and blankets stuffed in it to muffle the drum adding to the miserable sound. My recently purchased custom set came with an SK1 on it and I really liked what it sounded like. I decided to put an SK1 on the Ludwig and the sound is truly amazing. I don't even use any muffling other than what comes on the head. I like to keep the Ludwigs as old school as possible but the Aquarian heads make them sound better than ever. I bought the SK1 from Guitar Center because they had the best price and shipped the same day.

  • HOLY DRUM HEADS!!!!

    ok, the title was kinda random. But this drum head rocks. I bought a used drum set, pacific drum by dw, though i would have to replace all the heads. But it came with this head and omg i will never change it!!! it has a nice low ring that fades quickly. i was thinking about evans emad before, but this head has changed my view. (to sum it up) BUY THIS HEAD! NO REGRETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
