Warrior QRL Stick - Where are the non-grip versions?

[Coldclay 53]

Is it me or does Warrior not have any non-grip versions of the QRL sticks? I'm hoping to find a 55 flex non-grip QRL or QRL Pro Int stick but can't seem to find any...

Krylon acrylic spray puts a clear coat over the grip. Or get a 1/3 sheet sander with 150 grit and remove it.

While your suggestions are all valid, I was wondering why non-grip sticks are not available... I would sand a brand new stick if I must, but it sucks to pay big bucks for a new twig and then have to modify it by destroying the paint job...

 

Why are non-grip sticks harder to find in general?! Not everyone likes grippy sticks...

not everyone does, but the majority of people do. Every time i look at a clearance rack at a store its mostly filled with clear versions of sticks, so i can see why they have scaled back on the offerings.

I can understand making less non-grip sticks, but not offering them at all is a bit odd. I'm still hoping Warrior will offer them later or perhaps non-grip shipment are trickling in still since the QRL's are rather new. Also, I see the opposite in clearance racks, always way more grip sticks than clear and it's always a bunch of PM9's when it comes to Bauer! Me no likey PM9!!!

A lot of companies offer them for booking, but few places stock them. Demand for grip outweighs non
