Those sticks make the triggers happy, I've started getting better dynamics out of my TD-27 module. Also very clear differense on triggering the ride and hihat. Honestly the same can be achieved with nylon tips but I like those carbon stick because of their build quality, it's all in one, no separate tips, they feel very good in my hands, the grip is completelly fine like normal wooden sticks. Only cons they are a bit heavier but this helps me to practice and improving my technique.
