Why players choose SmartStop

Secure on common floors Designed to grip marble, wood, laminate, linoleum and other smooth surfaces without tethering to a chair leg.
Easy to reposition Lift and move the stop when you want to adjust playing position during practice, rehearsal or performance.
Works with different tips The central multi-hole area accommodates sharpened endpins, while rubber tips seat securely on the upper surface.

SmartStop was developed by cellist and teacher Sarah West following extensive material testing. It uses a tough, tear-resistant construction and is handmade in Minnesota by a team of musicians.

Design

How it works

A specially formulated backing grips smooth floor surfaces to help prevent the instrument sliding, while still allowing the holder to be lifted cleanly when you want to reposition it.

Sharpened tips: the central honeycomb gives several small positioning points.
Rubber tips: sit securely on the rigid upper face.
Compact: designed to fit easily into most instrument cases.
Cello & bass: suitable for cellos and most double basses.
Easy care: rinse the backing under water if dust reduces grip.
Construction: rigid upper face with a high-grip flexible backing.
