Aluminum or Steel JSP Sticks?

[K Williams]

I was wondering if James Piorek would(or has) consider(ed) making a second line of his sticks out of stainless steel or aluminum as a cheaper version of his titanium models.

having played around with steel pipes I thnk it is kind of a bad idea to have a full size steel arnis stick fatigue and bad for your wrist I think.. aluminum woudl be too weak(??) Sadly the high priced Ti is the best mix of strength and weight.

Practically speaking I woudl prefer an ASP.

I think K is referring to the Ban Bog, Wang Sticks, etc...

I have bounced ideas around with James on many things and I'm sure we have talked about it at one time or another. I'll get back with him this week over it.

Yeah, Don's right. I was thinking about steel or aluminum versions of his small defensive sticks.
