## Description

Review: ProMark 2B ActiveGrip - Very nice grip. Nice and wheighty, very durable, sounds great on a kit
Review: Best sticks I've owned in 22 years of drumming. - Best sticks I've ever owned. Yes, the coating does come off after a few heavy gigs - but I'm yet to find drumsticks that are comfortable where this doesn't happen. Oh, and I did have a defective pair that broke (one stick) within 24 hours - but this was easily solved by desertcart. In terms of weight, they're well balanced and ideal for Roland V-Drums. The coating doesn't get too rubbery and end up causing blisters - which is a huge advantage over similar sticks from other brands. I cannot recommend these sticks enough for any digital drummers.

## 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”.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cool drum stick - don't expect pristine print colouring
*by C***E on 5 December 2025*

Purchase as present. Good in hand. Printing quality was not pristine which is a shame - made it feel lower quality especially for the brand and price.
