I have also started doing corian tipped strikers which work great and without the weight of a complete corian striker. I don't know if I have any pics of one, but I'll look.       Ryan

Ryan Bonjour is also playing w/ corian, ebony and antler tipped strikers which look good and run even better.

What kind of sound does a corian striker {or tipped} have on calls? Do you primarily use them on glass?

I really like them on aluminum, but they will run glass also. The main reason for the corian though, is it will run great on a wet call. The only downfall of corian, is that it is a little softer than some materials and tends to clog up the surface, but just a soft wipe with scotch brite takes care of that.

What exactly is corian?  I know its a synthetic material that is or can be used for countertops, but still Id like to know what it is.

It's actually a modified acrylic. Works similar to wood. They take ingets of acrylic, crush them, then suspend the particulate in an acrylic base.
