But I have found a little trick to prevent those super slim sticks from breaking; I simply wrap duct tape around the necks of the sticks just below the nylon tip. What is cool about this is, it prevents the stick from breaking so easily, and, it softens the sound of the crash, so it is not so harsh! But, if you want that harsh crash, you adapt to crashing with the lower (thicker )end of the stick.

Thought about taking old broken nylon tips, melting them down, and twirling tips into the melted nylon, but in light of these posts, it sounds like that is impossible! Any luck with other ideas?
