24" 2002 Black Big Beat Cymbal : Wonderful versatility

I play stoner rock and like big cymbals. Also it just so happens that crash on my rides pretty regularly, so previously I would either use larger crashes for this purpose or would sacrifice crashability by using bigger rides. Now I have the best of both worlds.

Pros: Everything I have read in reviews when researching this cymbal is true - buttery feel; wonderful crashability when used as a crash; does not get overpowering no matter how I hit it; fairly defined ping when used as a ride.

Cons: Well, if I had to nitpick - the bell is lacking.

My favorite piece of kit in a long, long while. Now just to see how it stands the test of time and my heavy hitting... but hey, it's Paiste - should hold up.
