Love these drumsticks
Very nice drumsticks… It’s been taking some time for me to get used to the extra length and sometimes I click my sticks together… But soon these will feel natural

Pretty cool!
Love Vic Firth sticks. I’ve been playing with them for years. Over the last 6 years I’ve used the AJ1 or AJ2. They are light and fast so I was interested in the freestyle 5a as to how they would feel being an inch longer. I’m not a fan of a standard 5a. These took some getting used to but I really like them. They are heavier but after playing with them a bit I found that extra weight and length to come in handy. I let the stick do more and the results are sweet. I feel like I upped my chops 10%.

Great lightweight sticks
Love these. Smaller and lighter than my usual sticks, for times when I need to pull the volume back. I was surprised to realize that they're about 1" longer than my usual sticks, which is fine with me, but just a bit unexpected.

I love these sticks!
These sticks feel sooo good. I love the extra reach, and they're perfectly balanced. The tone isn't always going to be just what I'm after on the cymbals (no stick is perfect all the time) so I've ordered these in a 5a also. I imagine I'll get every size, just to compare and enjoy. Highly recommended.

Light
Not as durable as other sticks, tips chip Easily. The sticks are lightweight compared to other similar sticks

Good stuff
Great sticks longer than normal. But you get used to them very quickly. Would totally recommend.

So much rebound from holding anywhere on stick!
LOVE THESE. Was a 5A or 5B extreme guy for years. This extra length, but more Importantly , that extra big fulcrum zone rules. Sticks have so much bounce from anywhere you hold them. For fast choppy Copeland or Carter Beauford stuff these are unmatched. My hands feel like they can do more with these sticks. Seriously. They give me more chops somehow. My hands can keep up with my brain more than ever. Highly recommend. Nice job VFirth.

I like the length.
Finely a pair of drum sticks in a longer length! Not too long, but just right. I'll buy these again for sure!🥁

I’ve got a few pairs of sticks from different brands but have used Vic Firths before and like them. I bought a pair of the Dave Grohl signature stick by Zildjian and liked the extra length, then saw these and thought I’d give them a try. These for me are perfect, long with a longer than usual taper and 5a tip means they are perfect for my playing style. Genuinely great sticks, really great feel, balance and response. My new favourite sticks

Ottime bacchette per un batterista punk rock come me! Sono resistenti, leggere ma producono un bel suono rimbalzando adeguatamente sulle pelli dei miei tamburi. Per me leggermente troppo lunghe ma ho provveduto scorciandole di circa un centimetro e adesso sono perfette! Ripeterò l'acquisto appena necessario.
