Style: Rebound 5A Size: One Pair Color: Clear
I have very dry hands and have always had issues gripping my sticks. I've tried almost everything out there, dipped sticks, tapes, and for a while was using stick wax which worked well but I got tired of cleaning it off my rims. I've always been a fan of Promark sticks so gave these a try. I was hesitant at first because I did not like how the grip covered the entire stick and was concerned how that would sound on cymbals and if it would flake off easily, etc. I've been using these for two weeks and have been very pleased. The sound is great, I like the slightly larger acorn tip. And the coating is holding up very well. Nothing flaking off on my cymbals, pretty much just looks like a regular stick. The grip is great. It felt a little powdery at first, but I just washed them quickly with warm water and dish detergent and they are nice and tacky, but not too tacky. I think these would work well for any situation, whether you have dry hands like me or get sweaty hands. They seem very durable, great balance and weight. My other concern was the wood tip. While I like to use them to perform, I prefer to practice with nylon as they last longer. I've had issues with wood tips chipping after a while. These seem very durable and are holding up well, so we'll see over time. Overall, I highly recommend if you have issues gripping your sticks. ... show more

  • Go-To sticks
Style: Rebound 5A Size: One Pair Color: Black
My son takes drum lessons with a mainstream music school. Part of their program is to build confidence and get the kids to perform live on a stage at local venues every few months. He still gets a bit nervous and mentions his hands sweat (I secretly worried about him accidentally flinging the sticks). I did some searching and saw mostly grip-tape products, and was concerned that wrapping the sticks with tape may add thickness and weight and throw his playing off a bit. Then I found these and since they had good reviews, I picked him up a pair to try. I wanted to make sure his teacher was ok with these or possibly give a reason why they weren't a good idea, but was pleased when he exclaimed "oh those are what I use when I perform!" That was a good sign. My son's been using these about 6 months for both practice and performing, with good results. To avoid having to adapt to different sticks, he decided to use them as his everyday sticks. They are just slightly tacky when you first hold them but as your hand sweats, they actually grip better. Other than that they play and feel like any standard stick (5A in his case). After a few months the ends of the sticks do show wear from rim hits (he's still learning) but the playing and sound is not affected. The photo is after 6 months and shows wear from hitting the rim, but the grip area is still perfect. The actual tips do not have the coating and are bare wood. He has another live show coming up so I threw a new pair in his Christmas stocking to use for performances that don't look so beat up. He'll continue using his original pair and have a newer pair for shows. A few of his fellow drummers have brightly colored sticks just to be different and flashy. He's not a glamor kid, so the cool but serious black color fits him more while also providing the non-slip functionality. He's happy with these, so I can see them continuing to be his go-to sticks for some time. NOTE: I purchased this item on Amazon for full price and have no affiliation to the seller. I try to write helpful, unbiased and insightful reviews because I also read reviews prior to making my own buying decisions. I notice many reviews lack helpful information, are too brief and don't support their opinions with examples. Writing useful reviews helps pay it forward. ... show more

  • ProMark has raised the bar for drumsticks, again.
Style: Rebound 5A Size: One Pair Color: Black
These sticks are amazing. ProMark really has made a new type of drum stick. It looks exactly the same as almost every other drum stick. However the feeling is different, from the balance to the coating. They are long sticks as well. Sound quality is great for cross sticking on the snare with a nice feel and a wonderful click. The grip coating is amazing - giving just enough hold to keep sticks from becoming missiles while not being gummy, attracting dirt or interfering with playing double stroke or buzz rolls. ... show more

  • Great Sticks BUT Inspect Them Carefully!
Style: Rebound 5A Size: One Pair Color: Black
These are fantastic drumsticks! There are well balanced, non-slip and sound great! SADLY, I am deducting at least one star because of a noticeable flaw in the finish of one of the drumsticks that either got by QC or allowed to pass through by AQL, uggh. My left-handed luck lol.

  • Great Feel and Comfort!
Style: Rebound 5A Size: One Pair Color: Black
I’ve been using the Promark ActiveGrip 5A Rebound drumsticks for a few weeks now, and I have to say they’ve made a noticeable difference in my playing. The grip is fantastic — as I start to sweat, the ActiveGrip technology kicks in and the sticks actually become tackier, giving me a secure hold throughout my entire session. The feel of these sticks is incredibly comfortable, and the hickory wood provides a solid balance of durability and flexibility. The acorn tip offers a smooth, articulate sound on both the snare and cymbals. They’re great for both fast and heavy playing, and I love how responsive they feel. If you're someone who struggles with grip or just wants a more secure feel without having to constantly adjust, these sticks are definitely worth checking out. They’ve improved my drumming overall, and I couldn’t be happier with my purchase! ... show more

  • For the newbie-ish drummer
Style: Rebound 2B Size: One Pair Color: Black
I've only been drumming for 8 months now and in that time, I didn't just drop sticks - I would sling them. Anyone walking in the room was advised to wear safety googles. I got these a week ago and, along with consciously trying to improve how I hold sticks, the slinging has all but disappeared. The only caveat here is that with better grip from the "tackiness" also comes the potential for more blisters, so be sure to grab a pair of good drummer's gloves along with these sticks :) ... show more
