improve stick control & build finger technique with the HingeStix practice drumsticks

An essential factor in enhancing your stick control is the way you use your back fingers with the drumstick.

This is precisely why we created the HingeStix Practice Drumstick. No other drumstick on the market emphasizes how to maintain a loose grip, accurately positioning the fulcrum, and involving the fingers to execute the movement of the HingeStix.

There is only one correct way to hold the HingeStix. HingeStix cannot be played with the fingers off the stick (see videos below) because the stick will not react properly. The HingeStix forces you to engage the back fingers to effectuate stick movement. So when held correctly (while striking a drum surface) you'll be controlling the stick the right way.

Now, the magic happens after you build your muscle memory and go back to your regular drumsticks. Even after a few minutes, your mind and body automatically translates what it has learned over to your regular drumsticks. Read the reviews at hingestix.com

By using the HingeStix, you'll notice that you grip your regular sticks more loosely and achieve better stick control by engaging your back fingers.
