X5A but with less hand tension
I now use these sticks for everything apart from jazz where I want a small tipped and much shorter/quieter stick.
These give you more reach/power than your standard 5a.
I was skeptical about the grip when I first saw it, but after I've used these, you don't have to grip the sticks as tightly to hold them, so your hands/arms don't get fatigued as quickly. I now don't like using non coated sticks as these feel so nice to play with.
The rubber coating doesn't melt or come off easily, which is what I was worried about, however you will probably need to replace these slightly more often than X5A, as after a while the rubber coating does start to tear. I play drums most days and a pair would last me 1-2months.
I'm very picky about the dimensions and absorption of sticks. These outperform other brands at the same dimensions in terms of absorption. So there's less vibrating in the stick as you play.

Lovely
Lovely sticks. If you're a hard hitting, big sweaty drummer (like me) then you probably have sweaty hands and ocassionally when you losen your grip, a stick may go flying into the audience and you have to foot the bill for someone to have a drum stick removed from their eye...not anymore!
Brought these sticks to avoid the above situation and they've worked. The grip feels natural after a couple of session - admittedly different but doesn't take long to get use to and really enjoy, like normal sticks. I prefer these now to standard, non-coated/non-grip style sticks. Quality is the same as any normal 5A stick from Vic Firth. I keep re-buying because I break a lot sticks...like I said, hard hitting drummer!

Suitable sticks for a drummer
The grip on stick prevents the sticks to fall from your hand very good. the quality of the sticks are pretty good and strong, much much better and stronger then the regular 5A. Those were my first sticks with grip and I enjoy playing with them. If you are looking the sticks with a grip those ones are the right choice for you ;)

Solid Option
Love the grips. Nice weight and balance. A little disappointed in how long they've lasted - they cracked after a couple of shows.

Great!
Very good grip and good quality!
I have had alot of blisters on my hands and when they are filled with blood and break, I cant work(I work in a food store).
So I started wearing gloves but all gloves were just getting ruined by my playing but with these sticks and my meinl gloves, I get supergood grip and it doesnt tear my hands or my gloves appart.

Second best stick for me. Ever.
Longer than usual, and an amazing non-slip holding area. Love it, since I ordered this, I only play with sticks that have Vic Grip on them. This has a wood tip, so not as bright on the cymbals, but this sound is better to me. Lately I'm using the thicker X5BVG, but this is just as amazing.

No more dropped sticks
I used to drop sticks all the time. Since I started using VF Grip sticks over a year ago, I have a clean record of 0 drops.
These are my first and only choice when buying drumsticks.
