Axis question for you

Hello George!! I purchased some months ago, a pair of AXIS A LONGBOARDS..my question is :
HOw can I obtain the maximum power from them?
I used to use some IC...and they were reallyr eally powerful compared to my axis...
I want to have a nice volume because I'm a hard hitter and I don't want to use triggers because I don't have enough volume
I use triggers for definition not to cheat

Thank you for your time!

I can advice you to use heavy beaters, use a protection pad like the Remo falam slam which adds a bit more 'bottom-end" to your strokes and what might be an idea is to mess a little with the variable drive lever. If I remember well, I was able to play louder with my vari drive all the way up the top. This way, you'll sacrifice some speed, but gain some volume/power.

Good luck

Btw, I'm not sure when George is gonna be back from tour, so you might have to wait a while on your answer

Steel is right,try some heavy ass beaters and place them high,then you will see some real power for sure......Not too tight springs as well cause it keeps back your foot.
