Frequently Asked Questions
The double hammering introduces a more textured surface, resulting in a slightly stickier feel and more varied stick sounds compared to a perfectly smooth, lathed ride.
It’s drier than many rides, but it still possesses a subtle, controllable wash that adds warmth and complexity – it's not a completely dead sound.
While similar in concept to other dry rides, the Ufip’s B20 bronze and hammering give it a more organic and nuanced tone, avoiding a sometimes overly clinical dryness found elsewhere.
