As a fellow drummer, I totally get Brandon’s points. While I love my Techra sticks, I’ve noticed the rebound feels a bit unusual when paired with heavier ride cymbals. I’d really love to see them offer a thicker diameter option to address that. The Virgil Donati X-Carb remains the gold standard—2B should definitely start with that as the baseline size. Solid 4 out of 5.

After a full year of heavy use with Techra drumsticks, I am thoroughly impressed by their durability. I play high-energy metal, and these sticks have maintained their stiffness perfectly without wearing down. It is rare to find a brand that delivers such consistent quality, and Techra has definitely earned my trust.
After dozens of rehearsals at Techra, these drumsticks have proven to be incredibly durable, showing almost no wear. They perform beautifully on snares and toms, offering a great balance of power and attack that is easy to control. The tip delivers a sound similar to nylon, providing excellent projection for live gigs. They seem built to last for months, making them a fantastic value for anyone tracking or touring. My only hesitation is the slightly reduced rebound on the ride cymbal. Also, if you prefer a thicker feel akin to a 2B, you might find the .630" diameter a bit more like a 5B.
Techra ha davvero colpito nel segno con le COLOSSUS 2B. Le ho provate subito e devo dire che sono il top: bilanciate alla perfezione, incredibilmente resistenti e garantiscono un suono netto con un controllo eccellente. Sono finalmente arrivate le mie bacchette definitive. Uno spettacolo vero e proprio!
I was initially skeptical about the weight of these Techra sticks, especially when testing them on my practice pad. However, once I started playing on a full drum kit, that extra mass actually became an advantage, significantly reducing the physical effort required compared to standard wooden sticks. I put the Carbon Pro SuperGrip model to the test during a two-hour live gig in Romano d'Ezzelino, and I found myself much more relaxed and less fatigued than usual by the end of the night. The grip is excellent—offering a perfect balance that isn't sticky but feels nicely soft. Truly high-level drumsticks.
