I don't have an "Off World Pad" yet, so i can't say. But I personally favor the HQ Real Feel pads. I have found (so far) they they of all the pads that i have (including tru-Bounce, Vic Firth), that they most closely resemble the rebound of a tightly tuned snare drum head. If a practice pad is to "live" (too mcuh rebound), you will just be fooling yourself into thinking that you are perhaps better than you really are, as when you go to play the same way, having gotten used to controlling the rapid rebound from the pad, on your snare drum, you might not be able to play the patterns as well as you have on the springy pad. ... Just my observation. :>)
