The contest which consists of two categories, Battle of the Hands ™ and Battle of the Feet ™ will be held each day on The NAMM Fastest Drummer 4th Street Lobby Stage at the Austin Convention Center starting at 11:00am Friday, July 27th, with “heats” continuing through Saturday until 5.00pm. The top ten Fastest Hands and top ten Fastest Feet will compete in a ‘Finals Battle’ Sunday, July 29th.

Included in this year’s event will be technical demonstrations, insight sessions and appearances by WFD Champions and World Record Holders Johnny '3Bomb' Rabb (Deana Carter, Tanya Tucker, SheDaisy, Maynard Ferguson), Matt ‘The Kid’ Smith, and Mike ‘Machine’ Mallais. “To see these guys with World Records of 1200 strokes in a minute go at it, full throttle, smooth as silk is simply an amazing work of technical proficiency.” says Boo McAfee, co-founder of WFD Extreme Sport Drumming ®.
