Great Balance but weak nature
Let me start by saying I ADORE this Model Stick. Maple is a wood that feels great, sounds great, specially on cymbals and is light weighted, BUT, if you don't manage your intensity they go rather fast, basically they break. This stick is NOT for heavy hitters, I would suggest Hickory for that. This model is more of a groove and technique oriented design in my opinion. But just give them a try.
Best sticks ever
Better than VicFirth, they almost last double as long!
Just Ok
Light maple as you would expect, however the durability was not the best. Probably would be fine for a light player. I would not hit very hard but i didnt get the longevity I would from a hickory stick.
