I have those pad, there not bad at all. Somewhat perfect for you. They are just not great for any higher than standard but your a beginner.

those pads are wonderful, I used those at a friends house and they are amazing, but it was a japanese imported version though and it felt like it had solid metal in it

the quality of these pads really depends on the sensor layer above the foam. I bought pads from this seller except they were using soft foam instead of hard foam and each pad lasted a day.

After that I started getting random boos and misses and then after a while ghost stepping. And at that time i was playing light heavy songs. So beware that's all

I got similar pads off ebay and they work great. Although I have an afterburner now I still occasionally use them if I hurt my foot orif company comes over. I have actually passed 9 footers on these pads including some on ITG. They actually make doing ITG hands much easier than a metal pad. Problems include fast 16th streams and jackhammers - they are harder to pull off on these then on a metal pad.

I think alot of these threads could be eliminated if you guys would just read the sticky by Cutriss about soft pads.

Soft or flat pads suck. Get over it.

He's right. A soft pad may work for a while, but in the end a metal pad will last longer. I have destroyed three soft pads so far and that is why I have decided to save up my money for a Cobalt Flux pad.

yes - this pad will be great for you - however, if you're a beginner, i would recommend max2 instead of extreme 2 - simply because it's much easier to unlock the songs.

but whatever you do, make sure that it sayd something like "hard foam" or "high-density" foam insert. soft foams last 30 mins. I would know - i own 2 in the back corner of my storage room. $45 down the drain.

Once you feel like you can pass 6 or 7 footers on standard or heavy, it's time to let them go and get metal if you are still serious about playing the game.
