Evans RealFeel 6-Inch Two-Sided Practice Pad

The two playing faces of the six-inch RealFeel pad.

When to choose it

Choose the RF6D if you want two surfaces in a pad small enough to take to lessons. The gum-rubber side gives you one response for basic sticking. Turn the pad over to repeat the pattern on the firmer second side. The six-inch size is useful for centered strokes, while the 12-inch model offers room for a wider pattern.

Evans describes the second face as recycled rubber. The Amazon title calls it neoprene while a detailed bullet also calls it recycled rubber. If you specifically need neoprene, confirm the selected item. If you need a threaded stand, compare the single-sided RF6GM with its documented 8 mm insert.

Questions about this accessory

Can I use both sides for practice?

Yes. The RF6D is sold as a two-sided model. The smaller single-sided RF6GM is a different pad.

What should I check if I need a stand?

Confirm the mounting method on the chosen model. Evans specifies an 8 mm thread for the RF6GM.

How should I compare the playing faces?

Repeat the same pattern with the same sticks. That lets you feel the surface change with the other variables held steady.
