How Do I Make My Double bass drum Pedal Faster?

I've been playing drums for a few years now, and I have a Pearl P122TW Double Pedal. (http://accessories.musiciansfriend.com/product/Pearl-P122TW-Double-Pedal?sku=448787)

For some reason, the pedal just doesn't have the right "feel" to it. To describe in detail, it feels like the spring is too tight (like im pushing too hard for too long) and there's no momentum in the beater, so i could put a lot of force on the pedal but the contact with the head is too light. But if i loosen the spring, the recoil is too slow. I've played the DW5000 pedals at my friend's house and it feels PERFECT. But I don't have the money to upgrade at the moment.. And I've even played these same pedals at a local music store and they had a better feel to them..
WHAT DO I DO, OH GURUS OF DRUMMING WISDOM??

Note: the pedal has always felt like this and its about a year old

Hello AJ S

I myself play AXIS pedals. check out my profile and click the link, some of my vids has pretty fast double bass in it.

on to your Q......

If you want your pedal to be "fast" then you need to tighten the springs ALL THE WAY. now it is going to be hard to press down, but train your legs to get stronger until its easy for you. trust me the speed is worth the training.

once you can play with your springs fully tight, the response will be very very fast, like the pedal is glued to your foot. go check the vids to see my speed, then go tighten your pedals and train.

have fun

-Eric
