A suspended drum is held up by something called a "suspender" (:not a suspender that country folk wear;) that is placed ontop of the lugs on the side of the drum shell (they're chrome colored). Then are held down by the tention rods that are screwed into the lugs when putting the drum rim and head on. Their purpose is to reduce rattling (if I'm correct) and let the drum ring more freely. Check out suspenders at "drumjunction.com" if you would like.
The drum is advertised to hold only 35 darts, however more can be held within the drum. If you do put more in the drum, then the chances of the blaster jamming are increased.
The main difference between drumming with traditional grip and matched grip is how the drumsticks are held. In traditional grip, one stick is held with an underhand grip while the other stick is held with an overhand grip. In matched grip, both sticks are held with a similar grip, either both overhand or both underhand. Traditional grip is often used in marching band and jazz drumming, while matched grip is more common in rock and pop drumming.
