Thank you.

Thank you. I am doing well. Doing a lot of playing in my basement at the moment. LOL Happy New year. I hope this new year is filled with health, prosperity, happiness and excellent music for you.

If you look at the matched group rolls both elbows are a bit away from the body. This is the most comfortable and natural position for me that allows the sticks to achieve the angle needed. As the rolls get faster and/or stick heights higher the arms get more involved and elbow comes up a bit higher. When I switch to traditional grip, the under handed position and motion cause the elbow to naturally move in towards the body. The right hand stays the same as in matched group. Holding the elbow in more feels forced and unnatural to me. Also, the elbow sometimes changes position when it's being used to whip the stick or attack for single stroke rolls.
