The Paiste 2002 Wild Crush Ride Cymbal is perfectly suited for contemporary rock and metal. It produces a crushing sound with an aggressive mid-range attack and a dark, controlled, steady, crash-like wash. The Wild Ride plays with a relatively soft feel, it's extremely responsive and giving. This cymbal performs best when played with the stick shaft on the outer third of the surface. This is the cymbal for a sound that's aggressive, lively, wild, foaming, roaring, and washy.
