Description
The Dycem Cello Black Hole Spike Rest is a compact, reliable floor anchor designed for cellists who need secure endpin control wherever they play. Using Dycem’s famous high grip material, it keeps your spike firmly planted on a wide range of hard floors so you can focus on tone and posture rather than sliding. It suits beginners finding their balance, advancing students working on precision, and experienced players who need a dependable solution for rehearsals, concerts and recording. Light to carry and quick to place, it protects floors while delivering a confident feel under the instrument, making it an easy upgrade for home practice, school ensembles and concert settings alike.
What sets the Black Hole apart is its grippy polymer that clings to the floor without adhesives or suction, so there is no residue and no fuss. Both faces provide exceptional traction, while the slight central recess helps locate the spike instantly and resists wandering as you play with fuller bow strokes. Compared with basic rubber stoppers or strap style anchors, it offers stronger hold on polished wood, tiles and laminate, needs no furniture to hook onto, and stays quietly in place under dynamic playing. The pad wipes clean in seconds and can be rinsed to refresh the grip, giving lasting performance session after session.
Perfect for UK tuition and ensemble use, the Black Hole is ideal for music services, peripatetic teachers and busy classrooms where rooms change and time is tight. Pupils can set up quickly without hunting for chair straps, and caretakers will appreciate the gentle, floor friendly contact. Its fail safe grip helps beginners adopt a steady playing position, while more advanced learners benefit from the confidence to explore wider dynamics without creeping forward. Small enough to live in a case pocket, it offers excellent value as a long term accessory that supports daily practice, sectional rehearsals and stage work with the same simple, reliable performance.
