Manufacturer's description
True to their name, the Fast Crashes have a smooth, fast decay following an initial strong attack. Featuring a new bell design, these Crashes are bright, full-bodied and musical. The thinner weight provides a soft, "buttery" feel for plenty of playability.

MusicRadar rating
Pros
These are lean and modern sounding cymbals that are impressively quick without being harsh or cutting.
Cons
While they are indeed fast, the emphasis on speed brings limits to their versatility with it.
Verdict
The overall feel and function of the cymbals suggests that they are not destined for the loudest of musical situations. The instant punctuation they provide is suited to the sort of tight, funky drummer who requires precision over power.
