    Wooton was my uncles college instructor, and I looked him up and found this.

    I ordered your book and DVD today. I could never play inverted flam taps. The way you broke it down on each hand (and emphasized proper technique) really made a difference.

    Stu, it is a combination. You are basically squeezing the stick slightly so that it does not rebound and that puts you in position to play a ghost note. But use as little pressure as you have to.

    Man, I wish that my old drum teacher from 26 YEARS AGO would reach back out to me via Facebook cuz he mastered and was phenomenal at all of this stuff.

      @@michaelhoman7748 oh I'm not a drummer by any means, mate. But I do enjoy experimenting with different musical instruments so I got them. I've since been banging with the sticks on anything and everything. I'm hoping to buy a drum set someday soon but it's not at the top of my list at the moment. Are you a drummer?

    You can see how much more tension the traditional left hand grip puts in your body especially with a drum that height.

    At first I thought I was watching Beyond Belief: Fact or Fiction with your introduction and your voice tone like James Brolin, until I saw the drums. Very informative btw

      Dr. Throwdown, what practice pad do you use here?
      Is it old version of Vic Firth Slim/Stock pad?

    Hi Folks, thanks for this video, it helps me a lot to figure out about how to practice! but I sill have one question regardind the VF rudiments.
    Considering the Website, the paper for practice give us feel levels, such as Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum and Diamond, but it doesnot inform the BPM in any of them. Can anyone please tell us wich is the average speed for each one of this levels?
    Thanks in advance.

    • @shavedbird694
      @shavedbird694 5 років тому

      Daniel Schneider no no no, you use your wrist and count on the rebound of the drum. only use your arm if you are asked to for aesthetic purposes

    • @PeterGregoryDrums
      @PeterGregoryDrums 3 роки тому +1

      Please look closely at Mr. Wooton's motions in this video - he is using his arms. Pause the video here and there, and also slow it down.
