These come to a close second with Hardimons. The weight in the back keeps you moving more than letting the drum do more work. Amazing feel. They last beyond time. (Had one pair for 3 years now, splinters but never breaks) So try them out the are great

At first I didn't like these at all then i just kept with them and now I really appreciate the feel I get from them. Great weight to the stick, kind of a STA-PAC weight that resembles a Hardimon in your hand. Has a little bit of a heavy rear and a light front so they take some getting used to but Id give them a 6 of 10. Also the tip is fast and has a rich fat sound which is different in a stick that is so light at the tip. Try it!
