I recommend these sticks to many of my drum students. The size is perfect for small to medium hand sizes, allowing plenty of open bounce from the drums and not losing much power.
I use these sticks for playing jazz and the 8D version, same but longer, for other heavier styles.
Vic Firth always provide a perfect matched pair which is essential for balance. Unless you're thrashing the rims or edges of hi-hats all day long, these sticks will last too.
Bargain price here at Thomann, you can't go wrong.
