Size Name:5A  |  Style Name:Hammer of the Gods Product Description Introducing Techra's Hammer of the Gods drumsticks. These carbon monsters are the most powerful and durable drumsticks ever made - a real hammer perfect to pound the drums! Hammer of the Gods drumsticks have been developed for heavy metal players and other drummers who like to play at full force. These sticks produce more volume than alternatives made from traditional materials without compromising on handling. A rubber tip is located at the bottom of the drumstick which helps in absorbing the vibrations, up to 70% less than traditional sticks. Longevity is another aspect where the Hammer of the Gods strikes a resounding blow against wooden sticks. Typically, drummers will find that the Hammer of the Gods sticks will last up to seven times longer. Touring and recording artist Mike Hansen (Hurricane, Paul Gilbert, Bruce Bouillet, George Lynch and more) is one of many players delighted with these new sticks, saying "Hammer of the Gods gives me the pure definition I need on my cymbals and the strength and durability I need to pound my drums" As well as the benefits to the player, there is also a wider global benefit in using Carbon sticks - think how many trees are cut down to produce drumsticks? Do something good for the environment - Leave the wood in the forest, use Carbon! Box Contains 1x pair Techra drumsticks

Not durable, broke after 1 month. Waste of money
I bought these drumstick thinking they would last longer than wooden one. They arrived on the 3rd April. I tried them and they played nice. Not as nice a traditional wooden ones but played OK all the same. The weight felt good and they felt solid enough. The sould ws slightly different to that of wooden ones but I can't really explain how, possibly not as crisp.However yesterday when my son was playing one of the sticks broke. It snapped near the tip almost splintered. Neither me or my son are agressive players, we can't be due to the noise it would cause for the neighbour so I cannot understand how a drum stick which is almost twice the price of normal stick would break after just over 1 month. Will stick to wooden ones from now.

So good I'll probably use them forever
I have to say despite the shattered Techra stick photo on here... From my experience these are by far the strongest sticks I've ever used. I play death metal which is pretty intense and I've had the same pair for 4 months, and they still don't look ready to break yet. Even my band mates are baffled as I was going through Vic Firth and Pro Mark sticks within weeks, sometimes in one practice and yet these ones just keep going on and on. For me they are the best sticks I've had and I highly recommend them to any drummer.

Worth getting used to ...
I've used carbon sticks for a while now and, once you get used to them, I find them so much better than wooden sticks and the Tecchra power ones are nicly balaced and feel nice in the hand. They do benefit from having tape round the butt ends as they can feel slippery.As traditional sticks wear the balance changes and they also lose power because of the loss of weight at the front end.carbon sticks don't wear in the same way. There is no loss of mass so they remain constant in feel right up until the tim e t hey break - and they DO break. In every case, and I've broken four so far, its been about three inches from the end. Where it's the edge of cymbals that do for wooden sticks, it seems it's rim shots that see off carbon ones. Of course they do last so much longer than traditiontal sticks anyway but thet aren't indestructible.

These sticks were bought to last - but in fact have lasted the shortest period of time of ANY stick son has used over the past 5
Broke!!! Bought for my son who wanted to use for first time at a live gig. He did his normal warm up and then started the first song - a stick snapped midway through FIRST song!!!!! He continued gig and then two practice sessions with a cheap < £2 pair of maple sticks he buys in bulk.These sticks were bought to last - but in fact have lasted the shortest period of time of ANY stick son has used over the past 5 years - VERY Disappointed :-(I would have sent them back for a refund but as they broke during a gig and son wasn't thinking of refunds he didn't bring them home and so I couldn't send back - but all I can say is AVOID!!!!!!

So far the worst drum stick EVER
So far the worst drum stick EVER. Broke on the first time of using it. I will be contacting Amazon tomorrow for a replacement and will assume this is just a faulty stick.This stick is advertised as a heavy metal drummers stick that lasts up to 7 times as long as a standard wooden stick. Well my husband buys a new set of wooden sticks about once a year and he's not a Heavy Metal Drummer, he's a drummer in our Church Worship band. I'm not entirely sure Techra have any bragging rights left if they cant prove this was just one out of many that was faulty.

Not as robust as they tell you!
Took me a while to get used to the feel of the stick. Having said that after two weeks i loved the sticks, then in week 3 and after just 8 hours playing, one completely split. They cost me £25 per pair. No opportunity to return as I've used them. As a hard hitter I think I'll go back to wood. It's a shame but I can't afford to replace sticks after 3 weeks at £25 per pair.

All round stick for beginners
After doing some research knew that this was the type of all round stick needed for a beginner, they have proved perfectly suited to the job and the receiver is one very happy teenager!
