History:
Purchase: After using Vic Firth 5B and 5A sticks and not snapping them, i decided to try something smaller, so i bought 8D sticks (with a Nylon tip), i got them from McCormicks in Glasgow, Scotland for £7.50
What I Like About This Unit: These sticks are really strong, alot stronger than i though, and I play hard rock/metal music with a lot of rim on the Snare (and infact the toms too), so them standing that is good. The tips give a nice clean sound on the cymbals.
What I Do NOT Like About The Vic Firth 8D Nylon Tip Stick: so far there is nothing i dont like, they have stood up to the beating ive given them really well, they havent snapped and the tips havent come off.
8D Nylon Tip Stick Quality: great! you can trust Vic firth to make really good sticks!
Summary: If you like a lighter stick than a 5A or 5B this is what you should use, they can take the same amount of beating as a 5A or 5B. Really GREAT sticks!

It is really good for heavy metal. After using them for a while, and then switching back to a lighter stick, you can play faster than ever!

these sticks are realy nice if you dont play hard. they are great when im using my electronic set, but dont stand up to heavy hitting on my accoustic.

I love these things. Now, they are practically the only sticks I will use. For hard hitters on a budget, these are the way to go.
