Wood, or Nylon tip?


So yea, playing set I use nylon tip. Reason being, any wood tip sticks I've used, well the tips always chipped off...cause of that they dented my heads being I didn't see they were chipped till after the fact. So I basically only buy nylon tips now which every...maybe 1 in 10 sticks crack off after a while but I see if the tips gone one them so it isn't all that bad. But yea, nylon tips work for me and I don't go through sticks so fast so I'm happy.
Anyways, friends of mien that are drummers also get on me about using nylon tips and saying how bad they are...dent heads, mark cymbals...hell even just cause they're promarks =P
Denting heads...yea, no heads of mine dented cause of them.
Marking cymbals...yup that's true...but iono, I won't say wood tips didn't mark em' either with the gloss finish n' such, but I could care less, they still sound good to me so yea.

So, what kinda tips are you using?
