Docs
A virtually indestructible drumstick with smart technological refinements, the Ahead features a built-in vibration reduction system (VRS) that reduces hand fatigue and lets you play longer and faster and ergonomically-tuned handle diameters. A precision alloy core guarantees weight and balance variations of less than 1% compared to as much as 20% with wood. Super hard replacement polyurethane covers protect both sticks and gear. Super high impact nylon tips come in different shapes (including mallet heads) to fit every style of play.

"Awsome drumstick a must have!!!"
Feature:
ive had these sticks since spring, and they are just starting to peel the plastic off the stick, i am a very hard drummer though-heavy metal..so i really put them to work when i drum..

Quality:
very tough drumstick, although mine are starting to peel.. getting ot the metal core now. no bends though.the tips are kinda dumb though you have to super glue them or something..unless you wnat to keep screwing them on all the time..

Desirability:
very good looking drumstick! they are C-O-C-K-Y chicks dig them- belive me!....

Sound:
This drumstick sounds a little different than wooden sticks, but i alo think it is harder on cymbals-b/c thier metal-but overall very good drumstick.

Ease of Use:
this stick is very playable very different from wood, they bounce alot easier than wood and have a higher pitch when you hit i think..

"Either get AHEAD or fall behind."
Feature:
I love the replaceable tips and sleeves. If they wear out just replace it, simple as that.

Quality:
I never really bring extra sticks to practice but the one time i did i actually achieved to break the sticks, thankfully it was at practice but i still trusts these sticks over any other brand.

Desirability:
These sticks have unique characteristics that just explode into the senses catching and mesmerizing you.

Sound:
Awesome unique and crisp sounding sticks.

Overall:
I expect to be using these sticks for as long as I can keep a beat and thats not going to stop for a while.
