Durability

As martial artists, the designers of the SMAK-Stiks knew all too well the force and impact their product would have to withstand, but more importantly, they knew how their product would be used. The durability testing took into account all these aspects. In short, the testing was done in context. This ensured that the materials used to create SMAK-Stiks were best suited for the application.

One of the materials used is a water repellent nylon. This nylon covers the entire striking area acting as a protective shell. This allows any foreign material such as sweat or dirt to be wiped off. Trust me, after a day of training, you’ll want the ability to wipe off your training stick. Let’s face it, sometimes you’ll throw something out not because it’s broken, but because it just down right stinks.

The following video clip is intended to show some of the durability testing we performed. It does NOT represent normal use.
