Review: Super rebound!!! - This pair is tooo good, superior rebound. Can help play longer.
Review: Nice pair of Sticks! - the active grip is nice, this is my 2nd pair. The coating could be better, I guess its made to last with normal use on normal drumsets, on an edrum the grips wear out before you break the stick otherwise, nice sticks, well balanced.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the difference between the rebound stick and the forwards?**
A: As said above the taper size is different between the two with The Rebound being longer but the rebound 7a pop off the drums and symbols a lot better for a more controlled sounding drum roll and hat hat fills...The Forwards are for more of a power drumming style while the Rebound is for more of a finesse/Agilitized style of drumming... I’m a Rebound 7a guy and have no intention of ever using another type of stick other than these Promark active grip Sticks... They are amazing

**Q: Are these the lightest sticks available?**
A: Probably not but I will say that they are very light.

**Q: Acorn tip?**
A: Yes, these sticks have an acorn shaped tip on them. They sound good! You can see what I'm talking about here - https://musicalpros.com/beginners-guide-drum-sticks/ On that page they show you what various tips look like.

**Q: Why does the description say 5B, but the photos show 5A?**
A: The 5B are a tad thicker and heavier. I use both, the 5A seem faster after using 5B’s. 
I like them both. The clear are same as the black. Same feel and “stickyness”.

### ⭐ Very bad quality
*by R***B on 3 June 2025*

Very bad quality, and has white scratches all over and not polished properly, either it is old stock or not original of company, and when i tried to return it they asked for me to search a courier and pay for return charges to be sent to seller then i can get my refund.
