The I Crash 18" is the largest and lowest crash in the I family. Medium-thin, it scores 9 for definition and 9 for sustain: a big, full crash that carries in a room and leaves a long tail.

What sets it apart
  • Definition and sustain rated 9 out of 10
  • Brightness of 5, the lowest I Crash
  • Medium-thin weight
  • Big crash for the stage

The top of the I Crash range

The I Crash comes in 14", 16", 17" and 18". At 18", the Sound Lab numbers shift clearly: 5 for brightness, 2 for dryness, 9 for definition and 9 for sustain. The sound drops, widens and lasts much longer than the 17", rated 7 for sustain.

Crash or crash ride?

Zildjian also sells an 18" I Crash Ride, with the same weight and the same Sound Lab ratings. The maker publishes no other difference; it presents this one as a bright, fast crash, and the crash ride as a versatile ride that crashes well.

Frequently asked questions
18" crash or crash ride?
At Zildjian, both have the same weight and ratings. Pick the crash if it will handle accents; the crash ride if you also want to play patterns on it.
Which is bigger, a crash or a ride?
The ride, usually: often 20" and up. An 18" crash like this one is already a large crash.
How does a crash sound compared with a ride?
A crash bursts and spreads; a ride gives a defined stroke to keep time. With a definition of 9, this 18" has a clean hit for a crash.
