General

Drummers tend to heat up as they play, resulting in sweaty hands and slippery sticks. That doesn't have to be a problem any more, though, if you use the Promark 5A sticks with an ActiveGrip lacquer layer. ActiveGrip actually gets sticky as your hands heat up so you get the extra grip you need. The lacquer isn't rough like other types of grip, so your hands will stay intact. Not only that, but the layer is so thin that the weight and thickness is the same as your standard 5A stick, so your technique won't be affected.

Forward Balance

This pair of sticks has Forward Balance weight distribution. That means that a relatively large portion of the weight is at the front end of the stick. In order to achieve this, the shoulder of the stick is shorter than that of a Rebound Balance stick. The result is a stick that's perfect for playing with a lot of speed and power. The rather long teardrop tip makes it possible to get clear articulation and stick definition.

Prettige goedbgebalanceerde drumstok. Mijn voorkeur ligt al jaren bij de Simon Philips signature, echter deze stok heeft een uitstekende ligging en kan net iets beter tegen zweethanden.

Uitstekende drumstokken, zeker voor deze prijs! Ik heb zelf verschillende soorten stokken, en heb ook de grip stokken van Vic Firth, en deze doen zeker niet onder. Ze zijn iets lichter van gewicht, maar doen echt wel wat ze beloven. Ze gaan naar gelang het spelen hoe langs hoe meer grippen. Dit kan echter wel lijden naar blaren, maar met genoeg oefening gaat de huid hier sterker van worden en gebeurt dat ook niet meer.



Al bij al prima stokken, zou ze zonder te aarzelen opnieuw bestellen als ik weer een paar nodig heb.

Promark FireGrain - Because Everything Else Is Just Firewood

Tuesday 1 June 2021 By Kasper | Bax Music

Nothing beats the feel of playing with a pair of hard-wearing wooden drumsticks. If you know what we're talking about here, you probably don't go anywhere near plastic sticks and, just like all hard-core drummers, you take cleaning up all of those tiny chips of wood after an intense session for granted. Heads up if that's you, because Promark have masterfully mixed that trusty feel of wood with extreme durability to craft their FireGrain drumsticks.
