Sweaty hands

[Drummerjew]

What happens when your hands get sweaty while you’re playing and the sticks fly out of your hands...
what would you do?

grab another stick and carry on playing. The next day i would buy some gloves.

I had that problem back when I was younger and I went to the gloves thing. I would suggest wrapping grip tape on the sticks if you do use gloves or they will slip outta your hands gloved as well. use a towel and keep your hands and forearms/wrist dry between songs.

try using grip tape, gloves can get in the way. Use a powder so they don't get slippery, but grip tape will work.

You can also get a knife and scrape the varnish off the sticks where you hold them. This makes them easier to keep hold of.

I have another idea
I suggest that you sandpaper down the drumsticks finish and smear them with beeswax. This will make your grip better the more you sweat.
