So let's think outside the pad for a second: Sticks. I notice many of the hard hitting older drummers are turning to Ahead drumsticks. I haven't yet tried them personally, but the V.R.S. ( Vibration Reduction System ) seems to be a nice alternative rather than giving up on certain equipment or on playing all-together. Anyone use these?

A good +7 volts trig from a sequencer does a good job too. :)
