Zildjian's Description: <<< - >>>
Review: "The 22" flat was actually the first cymbal I played of all the new rides, and while I switched rides in and out on three other stands, that 22" flat stayed in place practically the whole time. I was captivated by its sound.

The 22" flat had a slightly sizzly, smokey, dark sound that seeped forth into the overall rhythm. It sounded neither above nor below, but rather through the music. While I was playing it I could see the edge wobbling - to the point where it looked like a rippling pool of water.

The flat ride was soft and warm to play on, and very easy to control. It had minimal buildup, and it possessed a great 'tick' sound with an attractive cushion that spread forth once the sound got going. Even when I crashed an accent, excellent stick definition was maintained.

Obviously I really liked the 22" flat ride."
