Wrote the following about Vic Firth 85A drum sticks hickory 85A with wooden tip
Eindelijk voor mij de perfecte stokken gevonden!!! Iets dunner als de 5a stokken. Maar wel dezelfde lengte als de 5a. Liggen qua gewicht en balans perfect in de hand!!!

Fijne stokken. ik vind de 5a te dik en de 7a te kort.en iets te dun.
De 85 a is net een mm dikker. Ik wist niet dat dit uit zou maken. Echt wel!!
Dit is precies de goede mix. Goed in balans mooi gewicht en lekker snel.

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.
