WHY DO YOU PLAY COLLISION?
I play Collision 2B Drumsticks and always loved the product! My favorite thing about Collision Drumsticks besides the outstanding product itself is the comradery and communication with Collision and family. I recommend Collision Drumsticks whenever I play out to other drummers on the bill and anyone else I know who twirls a stick!
