Our marching cymbals are terrible. I don't even think they're meant for marching. During one of our performances, the cymbal inverted, so she had to march like that the rest of the show. It has inverted a lot of times now. Its kind of funny.

during WGI World Championship my cymbal inverted and it sucked b/c i had to go almost the hole show w/ it inverted...



During the mardi-gras parade in galveston, a couple of the cymbals got inverted. The parade was slowed up a bit, so we had a chance to fix them, but no one could do it. Luckily our drum instructor, who's got biceps the size of your head, came to the rescue. Would've sucked if he weren't there.

to those of you still learning technique and marching with inverts...
doing a kruant will usually fix an invert...if you have some sort of tap or choke, and have an invert, simply change it to a kruant if you need to uninvert the cymbal. It's not really reccomended, but if you're in a performance, it's your best option.
