Dear Behzad,
With all due respects to the other responses, it makes absolutely no difference whose mallets you use no matter how you hold them..even if you hold them with your feet. Why would it? Think about it..
In fact, try the "Stevens GRIP" with your feet..it works GREAT! Then you could invent a new name..the "Behzad GRIP" and then, with a good advertising campaign, YOU could make millions. Then you could invent a motorized high-chair that would slide back and forth in front of the marimba,allowing "full,free range of motion" to play with feet..and sell that too. Just think of all those people at a PASIC convention trying out every company's marimbas on YOUR "Marimba Chair", sitting 3 feet up in the air playing with their feet! You could laugh all the way to the bank.
Seriously..
Why spend all that $$$ buying other people's mallets? Just make your own. It's no big mystery. Think of the $$ you'll save. (There is BIG, BIG MONEY in selling mallets!) Plus you can make them exactly the the sound you want.
