PS - Just because you've been doing something a long time, doesn't mean you've been doing it right.

You're kind of a d*ck, huh?

Nope, just don't put up with BS excuses. And unlike you, "pearl2004", I'm not going around calling people names in the process.

Saying you've been playing for 30+ years does not dictate you have been playing correctly. Nor does it make it any sort of qualifier of statements concerning technique.


See the difference? My post for 'tards' issues simply looks at the relevant facts. Tips chipping, breaking or otherwise is an issue only a select few people have. Therefore, since it's not the product - it must be the user.

Saying you've been playing for 30 some odd years doesn't make it any less a user issue.

BS excuses huh? Well if I did have bad technique and was hitting rims, wouldnt the wooden hoops on my last kit show signs of being struck and how would you chip wooden tips on wood hoops anyway and explain to me how chipping tips on rubber coated practice pads with no edges or rims, or chipping tips while riding a bell or bow is bad technique and not the product?




On second thought maybe Vinnie is right and I have been striking the rim once and a while and need to work on my technique...lol

To 'vinnies ice cream', every company has bad batches that can unfortunately be distributed to certain areas, for 6 months my area dealt with crappy 'g' string from elixir nano webs, no pun intended, and if a guy, like tard, had a bad technique in the past 30 years someone would have corrected it, and he seems like a nice, open minded guy about his craft, so he would have taken the advice, I seen pics of his kit, they're on great condition, his kit would have shown signs of bad technique, and I call names cuz I'm a d*ck too, d*ck, so feel free to enlighten us with your knowledge, but stop taking it personal and look at the big picture, Facebook is for BS, we are here to learn

Order page is still down, been 3 months now, thats a long time just to revamp their system, I really think they may be done.

I ordered a pair from them a few days ago

Did you ever get your sticks or at least a refund? Just wondering as it seems some people didnt get either.

[Jeffs Carrot]

Yeah I did get them last month

I had them make me a stick that was the same as the Weckl coated ones without the coating and a ball tip

Cool, glad to hear it worked out.
