Re: Cheap Metal Pads

I honestly think aTX pad should work. I think they're pretty good.

Re: Cheap Metal Pads

I have a flux and I wouldnt trade it for the world.. I have played on other pads but I have an arcade mod for my flux so I feel right at home with it.. Bluesharks are good pads.. But not cheap.. I payed a total of about $370. That included the arcade mod and shipping.. I got in in less that 2 weeks.. COMPLETE*

I didnt get it off Ebay either,, Go to the CobaltFLux web site.. they also sell stuff for schools..

Quoting myself AGAIN...:

No way you're going to get a quality metal pad for cheap, my only two recommendations are either RedOctane's Afterburner or the infamous Cobalt Flux. I've have bad experiences with cheaper metal pads... the arrows cracked, the metal bars they come with BEND, and the sensors wear out really quickly, about the same rate as third party mad catz pads do...

I'd say go with the Cobalt Flux and Arcade style mod, as I've heard stories of the Afterburner cracking or sensors failing to work as well.

I really need to make a pad-buying thread. D:

Re: Cheap Metal Pads

oh my gosh you are so lucky that you have a ddr club at your school, a few years ago my gym got flux's for the middle school to use just after i left, i was soo mad. anyways i think you should go for the flux, it is defianetely worth it, ive heard that the other metal ones move around too much and they break in a matter of months, i wouldnt trade my flux for anything else iether, its my baby.

Maybe it's because the arrow pads are broken. One of my arcade has a DDR machine that on the left you have to be fat to successfully press the arrow but the right works perfectly (which is why I'm so used to playing on the left side).

I have a Champion metal pad (better than Tournament pad) and it works perfectly. Only bad thing is that if your a bar raper (especially on 10-footers) you would be disappointed with the bar as it keeps moving back and forth and would sometimes unscrew itself, but a good pad nonetheless.
