Review: "Though the 20"–24" Thins are capable of being both crashed and ridden, Paiste deliberately chose not to label them as crash/ rides. The theory goes that naming the cymbals by weight rather than function is more neutral and lets the drummer decide how he or she wants to use them.

After a brief (but necessary) lie down we turn to the trio of Thins. First impressions reveal how easily they all open to crash. And what a crash... wide, deep and fizzing with warmth and musicality. The same liveliness is apparent when riding, as any sticking is soon chased by a busy wash.

Playing with particular care keeps the wash under control; once a certain velocity is reached, each of the Thins happily breaks into a rolling crash that adds an alluring blend of looseness and excitement to the proceedings (especially with the 24"). Moving onto the bell brings a sharpening of tone, but these cymbals are far too civilised to be mere clangers. They’re full of subtleties and are begging for the scrutiny of a recording studio."
