A common occurrence I'm sure, but even though my crashes are level, the felts lose their shape and the cymbal(s) start leaning in the direction of the wedged felt. Are there felts made of better material that won't do this? Or at least last longer? I've read about Cympads and the concensus is that they don't hold their shape either.
Update: The tilt wasn't caused by the felts at all.
I have two Roland cymbal booms left over from my old VDrum kit and the tilters don't allow a plastic sleeve to seat properly. Sometimes it happens to sit flat, then it will eventually tilt. I've been using these two booms while I decide what brand I want to replace all my booms with. Anyway, problem solved.
