I have been a long-time user of Stick Rapp, in the solid black color. Ever since a drummer left a pair of sticks behind at one of my gigs with these wraps, I have been in love. BUT, it seems all varieties aside from the solid black are distinctly lacking in the stickiness that makes the black ones so appealing. That goes for these as well. If you're looking for a wrap to make your grip more sure, even when sweating significantly, "stick" to the all-black and avoid these!
