Cobras: Our
uniquely patterned ‘snakeskin’ sticks, black on gray. This is a material tough enough to 
be used for ball bearings in
heavy industrial equipment! A bit
heavier than the Panther II, extremely rigid.
Absolutely the most resistant to nicks or gouges (though this doesn’t
mean it is unbreakable). For example,
hitting concrete is extremely abrasive and will damage a stick (just like if
you hit it with your car). Sometimes
these have a slightly grainy texture, other times they are smooth. About 11.5 grams/inch.
Available lengths: 21”, 24”, 26”
Cobra+: 14.5 grams/inch, generally only requested for
staffs.
Sometimes I get requests for bo staffs, and Cobra
material, or a related plain black one in a thicker ‘++’ size (very heavy), are
the only real options that will work in plastic. Wood is still best for very long lengths because the grain adds
strength over distance.
