Review: Light sticks, the grip works, work well for light at home practice. - These are used for practice on an electric kit. Ordinarily I might not go for sticky sticks... but the requirement within the house was for grip not risk! Some of the sticky has come off after some use, but I find them easy and nice to use for practice. Would I use them for gigging? Maybe. Obviously they're lighter sticks and aren't going to work well for medium/heavier styles. Very happy with them over all, and I'd buy them again for my particular light use case. Five stars. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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. ## Features - HICKORY WOOD: Hickory is the most popular wood choice for drumsticks due to its resilience, responsiveness, durability, and classic feel - ACORN TIP: The reinvented acorn tip provides a larger sweet-spot for increased responsiveness and articulation - LENGTH: 16" / 406.4mm - DIAMETER: .565" / 14.4mm - MADE IN USA: All Promark drumsticks are designed, engineered, and manufactured in the USA at our Texas facility to the most stringent quality controls in the industry ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B01G8JG1V8 | | Best Sellers Rank | 331 in Musical Instruments & DJ ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments & DJ ) 8 in Drum Sticks | | Body Material | Hickory Wood, Wood | | Brand | ProMark | | Brand Name | ProMark | | Colour | Black | | Country of Origin | USA | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 5,366 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00616022131570 | | Included Components | 2 Drumsticks | | Item Dimensions | 40.6 x 1.3 x 1.3 centimetres | | Item Type Name | Promark ActiveGrip Drumstick | | Item Weight | 0.09 Kilograms | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 40.6 x 1.3 x 1.3 centimetres | | Item weight | 0.09 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | D'Addario | | Material | Hickory | | Model Name | Forward Rebound 5A | | Model Number | R5AAG | | Model name | Forward Rebound 5A | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Packs | 1 | | Part Number | R5AAG | | Set Name | Pair | | UPC | 616022131570 | | Unit Count | 2 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** ProMark - **Colour:** Black - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 40.6 x 1.3 x 1.3 centimetres - **Material:** Hickory - **Model name:** Forward Rebound 5A ## Images ![Rebound ActiveGrip R5AAG 5A Drumsticks, Acorn Tip, Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61RygTtB7-S.jpg) ## 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 β€œstickyness”. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Light sticks, the grip works, work well for light at home practice. *by R***S on 16 February 2026* These are used for practice on an electric kit.

I bought these Promarks because I used that brand all those years ago (influenced, as I was, by my admiration for the drumming of Neil Peart). These sticks are made from hickory and have a coating (called Activegrip(TM)) that's claimed to become (deliberately) sticky when the hands get sweaty. I've not used them for long enough to properly assess that claim, but they certainly seem more secure in my hands than other sticks without such a coating. Individually, the sticks have a good feel and balance in use, but there is a bit of a difference between the two. I couldn't quite put my finger on what it was, so weighed them on some kitchen scales. Whereas my other sticks differ in weight no more than 2-3 grams across each pair, these are WAY different ... one stick weighs 48g whereas the other weighs 58g! I feel that ~20% difference when using them. There were also some white marks on the sticks when they arrived. These seemed to be embedded into the coating material. I managed to scratch most of it off, and it is only cosmetic, but it was still a bit annoying. All in all, I was a bit disappointed. This may (or may not) have contributed to me mostly reaching for my pair of Vic Firths when I want to do a bit of practice. ## Frequently Bought Together - Promark ActiveGrip Drum Sticks - Rebound 5A Drumsticks - For Secure, Comfortable Grip - Gets Tackier As Your Hands Sweat - Hickory Wood - Acorn Tip, Black, One Pair - Promark TX5AW-FG FireGrain Classic 5A Drumsticks, Oval Tip - Vic Firth American Classic 5A Drum Sticks --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kg/products/70075703-rebound-activegrip-r5aag-5a-drumsticks-acorn-tip-black](https://www.desertcart.kg/products/70075703-rebound-activegrip-r5aag-5a-drumsticks-acorn-tip-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kyrgyzstan* *Store origin: KG* *Last updated: 2026-10-05*
