The Jim Kilpatrick ABS Small Snare Drum Carrier is a brand new carrier specifically designed to fit drummers of a smaller frame, without compromising on performance, comfort, or technical innovation. It is the only marching snare carrier developed to properly support correct posture and playing position, delivering unprecedented comfort and freedom of movement while actively promoting healthy posture during rehearsals, parades, and competitions.
 
Engineered with Jim Kilpatrick’s Advanced Contour Hinge technology, the carrier allows the drum to move naturally with the player while maintaining stability and balance. This is further enhanced by the new articulating back support auto-release system, which provides dynamic support without restricting motion. Together, these features ensure a secure, comfortable fit that reduces strain and fatigue during long periods of playing.
 
The ABS Small Snare Drum Carrier includes the Jim Kilpatrick snare carrier adaptor as standard. Andante users should note that the Andante snare drum carrier adaptor is not included and must be purchased separately. The ABS back cushion is not covered under warranty. This carrier is protected by multiple patents recognising its advanced design and innovation, reinforcing its status as one of the most technically developed carriers available for pipe band snare drummers.
 
Please note that a high tension drum key is required to adjust all Jim Kilpatrick carriers. This is not included with the carrier but can be purchased separately.
