Had a couple of requests for a demo of how flexible the Temple Audio board is when stepping on it. This is my first ever YouTube video as well. It was actually pretty damn fun making it...I may have gotten a little carried away with some dramatics on the intro...my wife laughed at it, but what the hell does she know, haha.

Anyway, here it is, just hitting some chords and changing pedals. I am 205lbs and I was stepping really hard in the video so you can see the pedalboard give. Normally I don't think I would step this hard. Also, when I was stepping, I couldn't really feel the give the board had, but the video you can see how it performed.

I have the bottom row before the amp, the top row are the pedals in the loop.
Playing through my KSR Artemis (Lead Mode Blue channel) -> Suhr Reactive Load -> Axe2 (for Cab IR only) -> Matrix Eng Gemini 2 FRFR cab. Audio recorded through GoPro camera.

 
Well damn that KSR is sick.

Pedal board looks good. Obviously there's a little flex which I've never felt before on a board but it seems really sturdy. If you're 200+ and stepping harder than you ever would I think it would hold up fine.

I am however wondering what the tolerance is now lol. Is there a weight limit for the Temple Audio?
 
Cool, well done and that rig does sound pretty crushing. Doesn't look that bad and I'm sure I'd get used to it. Does it seem more sturdy on the edge? My wah is my concern, you really gotta lean on it but it's always at the far right edge.

Yes, it is more sturdy on the edges.
 
Wow I didn't realize it flexed that much. I ordered a holeyboard and hope I like it (won't be here til Friday). I was sold on the whole shelf/2nd level thing mainly cause I have big ass feet and probably need the separation in height so that the inner sasquatch in me doesn't go and click on or off the wrong pedals ;)

I got two buddies that have the Temple audio Duo 24 and swear by them, one even upgraded to a mono case which is soooo nice. Any way great video and great tone!
 
Thanks, it was pretty cool making the video, I didn't realize how much I'd like it. Reminded me of when I was first learning Pro Tools and trying to figure shit out.

Understand about the feet hitting the wrong pedal. I have the board pretty full and I normally have it up on my desk so I can fool around with the pedals easily. If I were to try to use it normally, I'd probably have to separate the pedals more. I was actually kind of surprised when I watched the recording of how much it flexed too, when I was playing, I didn't feel that it was flexing too much.
