This review is from: 26" Black Foam Escrima Stick (Sold Each) (Misc.)

These sticks are great for training, but not as good as they could be.
The issue is the PVC pipe they use as a core. It should be stronger.
Several times we had to replace the core with PVC tubing we got at the
local hardware store.
I found that if you take the gray PVC pipes used for watering systems,
you will have a much more useful stick. With that, you can hit as hard as you want
and not break the sticks, and you can do disarming, as well as stick assisted control holds.
With the core it comes with, the tube bends, and breaks with any real force is placed on
the stick.
If you are tapping lightly, and not doing disarming, then these are perfect. I like the
replacement cores we put in, to still train safely, but allow us to do more advanced
techniques.

They are excellent for sparring and let both people know when you make a hit without leaving a mark. They have a good weight and feel. Could do without the dragon inked on them in gold, but it is already beginning to wear off with use.
