I have broken three pairs of energy handsticks

(once i broke a pair 30 min. before a performance

) and i have ordered a pair of xtreme's. But lately i have been using white carbon fibes which seem very nice and strong, and since they're white, they have good visability, even though I am yet to master all the tricks I knew with energy.
P.S. One thing I hve noticed about breaking energy handsticks is that they don't break if you do a single very stressful move, but they break overtime from wear and tear.
