I have also been looking at Allen Hermans lesson 1a and 1b .Full rotations at slow speeds and going from gear 1 to gear 2.Singles Doubles etc.. Thanks Vincent

Hi, do you ever accent the second note to develop the double stroke roll? thanks

[@ThePracticePadBook]

Hi Al I haven’t ever made that the main focus, even though lots a players talk about. Accents and Rebounds by George L Stone Pg16/17 is a good one for this.

Is that Frank Zappa on your T Shirt ? Peaches on Regalia will be my funeral send off song ;)

[@ThePracticePadBook]

Hi Olivia, yeah that's my Frank shirt...nice send off choice!

[@timothyscanlan812]

Thanks for posting. At your fastest tempo it looks like you no longer twist your wrist on the traditional grip. Is this correct? Thanks again!

[@ThePracticePadBook]

Hi Timothy Yeah it does become more forearm up and down at the very fast tempos

[@timothyscanlan812]

Thanks! Sounds great 👍

[@rayboreham2648]

You seem to devote a lot more time to traditional rather than matched grip, even though I'd guess the majority of players are like me and play matched these days. Therefore, not the most useful video in my opinion.

Hi Ray, thanks for the feedback.
