I really try to spread it around, makes it very visual for the audience. I am trying to think if I hit one more than the other. If I had to guess I probably hit the 19" and 18" over the kicks the most with the next one being the 16" over the ride. I play mostly 80's hair metal (never gonna guess that one huh) so I tend to have my hands in the air alot. Can you say stupid human tricks?

Awesome beautiful kit,My Buddy has Absolutes,and they are Sweet.and I see you are a multi-cymbal user like myself.I agree,I try to spread it around,plus I got some extra's I put into the kit set-up,just to use them.But I guess I use my 15"AA Thin Crash,18"AA MedThin Crash,and 17" Thin Crash the most.

[sheoth]

my main crash is my 14" PST 3 crash

[somekidwithanm4]

Camber Germany 300series crash/ride. Sounds real loud and has a great bell too

[quikstang2]

20" Sabian AA Rock Crash

[leeman_36]

My primary crash is my Saluda 16" mist x crash

[nemrac76]

The 18" K crash-ride from Zildjian is one of my all time favourites.

[Scottie_Guns]

19 inch Paiste Dark Energy Crash.

[thesilencer]

I use my Zildjian A 16" thin crash for accents and my Sabian XS20 16" medium-thin crash mainly for riding.

[dave0549jv]

I use my 17" and 19" Signature Full crashes about evenly, depending on the song a'course...

[Mr. Tama]

My 18" Zildjian A Custom Projection Crash is my main, but I crash my 21" Zildjian Avedis Sweet Ride a lot too ;-)

[kaosotis]

Woah! I'm back. Haven't posted in a long time because work is absolutely INSANE this time of year but I'm still around and I'll be back from time to time!

Anyway, my primary crash is a 16" A Zildjian Medium-Thin Crash in traditional finish.

Knew we were kindred spirits! Same exact cymbal, except mine doesn't say A on it, since it was before they called them A's.

[yohin]

Mine is a 16" AAX Studio crash but soon it will be a 17" AAXplosion crash.

Done.

[concrete Building]

I'm still usin' my Meinl HCS. I had a dream about cracking it real badly, but it hasn't happened yet.

[Deep Blue]

Bosphorus 16" Traditional Series Medium crash. Had to special order it since most distributors only carry their thin weight 16" crash.

[fumbled time]

Zildjian 14" crash, it sits near my hats and I use it the most for fats attack.

[nizzle]

My primary crash is an 18" Zildjian K Medium Thin Dark Crash

[shabutie2113]

my sabian hhx 20" explosion crash =]

[Exotic Matter]

16" Zildjian K Med Thin Dark.

[mcramer]

right now im torn between the 2 different set ups i use.
i take a 4 piece with a 14 hi hat, 19 A custom crash, and a 20 old zbt ride, which i crash.
at a show i use basically the same set of drums but 14 hh, 19 A custom, 20 A custon, 22 A custom, ping ride, and a 18 A custom china

either way i would say my 20's are my main crashes

[SEAN8293]

is the main crash the one on the left or the right side?

[Lesizmor]
