I bought a brand new 24kg live fibre stroker for my game outfit, lastest one outing before it picked up a serious creak from the blank which wasn't just the resin cracking. I went back and swapped it for an ozflex 24kg stick, never had a drama and accounted for a few good billfish. I still have one 15kg stroker in my collection and haven't had any dramas, but are one brand I will steer clear off based on my experience, what you guys have said and the few I've seen snapped when interviewing at the ramps.
