You're doing a great service for the youth and 36 years old's like myself. Cheers mate
Same. I'm 36 next month lol
Thank you so much! :)
....and a 43 year old,attempting to play metal for the first time.
Thank you 👍👍
@@stinkbud2 look at all of us "oldies" lol im 39
42 here. I’ve just started with double kick and even if I don’t make this exercise sound great, at least I will be able to get up the stairs easier 🤘🏻😆
The KEY to all that you teach is putting in the TIME!! 🤘 Your videos are spot on,I wish I had this info 35 years ago when I started
Exactly. In the past few months I really started to focus and put time into practicing double kick and strengthening my weak foot(left). It’s really paying off!
And 48 yr old's learning from you too!! 35 years single kick...this knowledge & lesson you share is pure Gold.
Performing with my first metal band for the second time on UA-cam next week! Also played single kick for 30 years. Wish you well on your double kick journey!!
dopest dude on youtube. unreal content. thank you!
Marco Galeano thanks so much 🤘🏻😁🔥
I'm 42 and have been playing since I was 14. I'm just now getting serious about double bass, and discovering the pyramid. Thank you for making this easier for me.
I’ve been using this exercise for a few years. It was definitely the turning point in my double kick playing.
I ran into this channel a few days ago and it helped me already immensely, particularly this video and #3.
Thanks as lot! 🤘
I almost have this down at 130 seamless. Still have a hicup here and there. This help3d me so much for only doing it 3 weeks. Thank you!

Wyatt Stav I was having trouble playing heel toe on my iron cobras. I think they were too small, what should I do?
My issue is hands and feet wonna keep same tempo lol while I am trying to do the basic exercises. Harder than I thought for an old guy like me but I'm not giving up
I agree, i tried this for a week an hour a day and i got from 130bpm to 170bpm :)
Thank you for this! I started doing something similar to the pattern you did in this video two days back (with dbl kick as I am new to the discipline of dbl kick, going on for 3 weeks now) and wondered if it was worth the effort. The answer is yes! And you helped reinforce this focused practice session for maximum benefit, instead of doing endless, countless beat permutations, which ultimately get lost and aimless.
Perfect exercise video!!! Thank you 😍
AMAZING. Thank you, Wyatt; thank you so much.
It would be sweet if you could make a video on and about your set up for your pedals! Like going through how they are set up with your specs for the spring tension, how the footboard is angled, how far your pedals are away from each other, and all of that goodness. I know everyone is different and sets theirs up to fit them best, but if you have any comments or pointers that could make the drumming more efficient then that would be awesome. Oh yea, and great video! Keep up the great work!
Andrew Swaney honestly, I didn’t change a thing.. except I tightened the stock springs to max. But all my other settings are just default out the box 😳
Great video this is what I just started working on. It's great to see you do the workout and not just do one bar. Thx for taking the time to help us. I appreciate it
awesome! :D Thank you and im so glad you enjoyed this video! :D
Great videos man . Maybe in a month or so I can pull this routine off competently ! Also the heel toe scuff technique as well! Thanks!
Thanks for these awesome lessons bratha!
Thank you for sharing.
Thank you so much bro for this video! Im working on it, and i want to see the results of this work! Thanks mate
Thats amazing to hear! :D I hope these exercises really help!
Thanks man- very helpful🤘🏽

Whoa!! That intro was a Blurr!!
Thank you sooo much!!!! Super helpful
YESSS. Been waiting for this one thanks for doing it. 😁
@@JpDubbed Thanks man :D
You are very welcome! :D I hope it helps you!
What's good had a passion for drumming on the tables everywhere I've been for years been fortunate enough to get a pearl export series it's sick ,Cobra double pedal , unfortunately I live in an apartment where picky people can push you out so I'm just set up with my original single Pearl paddle and practice pads i appreciate the time you take to show beginners like me quick ways to learn muscle memory as well as good habits, keep rocking
Thanks so much! :D and you should get a electric kit so you can play all the time! Best of luck!
I played about 6 months on a single while I saved for a double pedal and jumped into it lol two songs that REALLY helped me out and is still my go to warm ups is waking the demon and then later on beast and the harlot. Waking the demon really got me going when I started with double bass because the pedal work isn't too complicated
I'm going to stay with that one. Thanks for the tip.
Thank you Wyatt!! 🙏🏻
Codie Swanson you are very welcome brother. Always a pleasure to see my patrons in the comments 🤘🏻😎🔥 thanks so much for all your amazing support!
Wyatt Stav definitely gonna do this before we start working on material tomorrow 🤘🏼
I had the opposite problem, to add double later and be in problem: Ï bought a double pedal like you, very early on. And so what happened I came too reliant on that double pedal and really forgot to practice with single pedal. Later on it came an issue. So to remind everyone, don't make the same mistake. My advice is to learn both. Right single, left as single, and then both. So if you have started with doubles, try to develop the singles, and if you did now buy doubles later on, don't forget to practice singles as well!
Very helpful! Thank you.
You are very welcome! :D awesome to hear this helped!
Damn I was waiting for that one ! Your hand videos help me so much so that one should help me too ! Thanks
Thanks amazing to hear! :D :D Thanks for this awesome comment!
PERFECT !
This an awesome video and is helping to work out some of my flaws. In life... lol on the kit of course
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH, BROTHER!!!
always great
ivan cavada thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed 🤘🏻😁🔥
1st I wanna say thank you! You are a great💥 teacher And great drummer!!(👍👍) We are all blessed by your service to all of us I wish I could of had this information 40 years ago 😆 ) my Pleasure To Be on board and be a new subscriber to your channel😁)
《🥁DONZO🥁》
Helpful ❤️
Drummer of slightly over 20 years just wanted to throw out there to anyone that another less "repetitive practice" way to get your left up to speed (or at least to where youre comfortable with it and it matches your right foots capabilities) that I found fun is to play any single kick songs you like to play along to but play with just your left foot. Not only does it break the repetitive practice cuz your playing different songs that you'd normally want to play anyways for fun but it trains your left as well forcing it to do what your right is already used to doin and at first just like this pyramid it'll prob be hard or you'll miss a few notes or sound sloppy or out of time but in time you'll slowly start to find it easier and sounding better and once at that level of comfortability your left will be able to mimic anything your right can do therefore double bass should be no prob other than just learning the technics such as hell-toe and whatnot. Just wanted to share!
Also if you are super dead serious about it another thing I've done is get your fav pedals and a pad and while you are sitting for hours watching TV or playing your video games have those feet steadily moving it's not something you have to put focus into all the time so by doin this for a few hours at a time whilst watchin TV or playing next time you sit behind the kit your feet will subconsciously be doin stuff you didn't even know you could do. Sounds silly but it works
Nice, i really should be doing this. Great content dude.
Thanks so much! :D If you give it a shot lemme know how it goes. I hope it helps you improve your foot control :)
Definitely feel that in the front of my legs.... great exercise...
Jim Carey great to hear 🤘🏻😁
Thx you very much for this lesson! I have a question, do you think the pedal that we use really matters for practicing and get higher performance? Thanks 👌
bout to start hitting on this again this week
Once again thanks for the tips and it's really helping 👍plus can you look into covering slipknot songs?
Hey man, you rock🤟
THANKS YOU TOO! :D
Great drum feet lessons ! you will make a video how you set the spring of our pedales ? thx
Maxime Plante I probably won’t just cuz there’s nothing really to it for me :) those are stock springs.. and I tightened them all the way! Haha that’s all there is to it 😎
Hey I chatted with you through your videos a few times (love you’re channel). I had seven spine surgeries so I have some issues with left leg. I decided to give a double pedal a shot. Is it normal to feel pain and fatigue in hip area. I’m a heel up player
Bought dble kick pedal already because all the music I Iisten to has dbl bass kicks in It even though I don't have a bass drum yet starting off slow and simple just a practice pad and bass practice pad as well. Stuff is expensive now a days lol
I sure have enjoyed your videos bro I will be a grand master student of yours BET when I first started dad said zildjian cymbals or axis pedals yeah I played snare hi hat double bass first year
OH AWESOME! :D I cant wait to get into lessons :) lmao thats super funny.. i would have gone the same way! on my kit I had a 18 Camber ride and 14 camber hats.. then a pearl eliminator double pedal haha.. it all suck so bad.. but i thought i was joey jordanson! LOL
Wyatt Stav I was always trying to be George kolias however you spell it,the dude from NILE anyway!!! I’m am the city Electrician where I live I’m 33 ready to step my game up THATS where you come in Tell me again how much a lesson can I use my I pad or what do you prefer and do you except vitmo or PayPal also what times do you have available if any thank you 🙏🏻 for everything you do
do you change your kick technique when playing uptempo? (like heel up to something).
if you do or even if u dont could u do a video on technique?
Friday I am doing the grand masters level. That's a steal for 100 bucks, too low if you ask me, but I won't argue with it.
Dying to see a cover of IT IS THE END by ICE NINE KILLS
Bought my first kit today and I have the double pedal right from the go. I didn’t see the point in buying both.
Gabe is my homey!
What foot technique are you using at 200BPM and which muscle groups? It looks like a full leg motion from your hipflexor.
I think exercise 1 is amazing. It is incredibly. But one thing i've always thought and been taught is to not practice speeding up like that. It causes your internal metronome not be able to stay consistent. As you want to be as stable as possible without that metronome. But just my thoughts, i don't want any newer drummers running into issues with that.
Great point! You can always modify the exercise to do the sub-division changes after n bars instead of just one. That way you practice both the sub-division changes and stability within a particular sub-division value (;
12:53 holy crap brother
Do you have the tempo ramp clicktrack also somewhere to be found? :D
i would love to practice this but i fkin broke my wrist while skating xD. Awesome job man keep it up!
OH NO!!! that's terrible.. I hope you recover well!
Thank you :D !
Ive seen luke teach that exercise before also troy wright teaches that same exercise and many different variations of these type of ideas.
NRD 2000 dope.
What’s a good double pedal to buy? I wanna buy a good one to last me forever if possible haha oh and also if it could be for edrums because that’s what I’m practicing with
I was expecting you would use heel-toe since this after that lesson :P
Hi Wyatt, I have a question about a specific issue that I'm struggling with and it's my feet and lower leg muscles twitching uncontrollably, starting at around 150 bpm. How do you get rid of that, did you ever experience that ? And if so, how long did it take you to get rid of it ? So it's a really fast sort of spastic twitch, but without any control whatsoever.
How is your pedals set? I use the same one!
How much time a day would you recommend you do this exercise?
Silly question do you start off as beginner right away heel up no matter how slow the tempo might be ? BTW, great lesson and exercise.
Ron Deangelis no, just depends on your playing style. 😁.. heel up typically is gonna be faster tho.
Hey, could you please make a video about your foot technique? Is it "full step"? It seems that you don’t use ankles.
Would you ever consider going over your pedal settings?
My step dads in a metal band so I started with double kick
Dude, a u using 20" Byzance Extra Dry Dual Crash-Ride? Ty a lot for your lesson! With love from Russia)
Yes Thats what I was using in this video! :D Its an awesome cymbal!
The outro song is so sick what is that from?!?!
Muito bom mano.... Sou de porto de galinhas .Brasil curto muito seu trabalho. .... E quando vier conhecer esse paraíso pode contar comigo .... Show abraços
What snare head are you playing ? Evans 360 2-ply ?
Do you have any advise for get a good drum sound out of only one or 2 mics
put a AT2020 above your kit centered facing down.. and put a Beta52a on the kick. :)
I actually got a Double-Kick-Pedal veeeeery quickly! Trust me, get your parents to do that!!!
Shouldn't there be 1/8th note triplets in the pyramid?
What kind of meinl crash ride are you using in this video?
Nice but are you doing half notes instead of quarters with you’d right hand,
what is the technique that you use for playing at 170 bpm for example ? I always used the ankle motion but I have a pearl demon drive since yesterday and I lose the control under 170 bpm (I had an old millenium for 3 years I saw death at each training 😂 )
I dont use ankle at all.... I really should tho. I am trying to learn it. It is really hard for me right now because I play with such power.. most of my leg motion comes from my thighs
i can't play last speed in firts exercize, help
❤️👍
don't wanna be bitching, but these exercised were first introduced by George Kollias in his dvds
George Stone Stick Control. Use it for your feet...
i am doing these at 85 bpm. slow but i am doing them, and i feel like i am making good progress in just one day.. i started at 70, i could not do 80 at the start of my practice. i was able to go up 15 bpm so not bad i guess.
That’s great man!
Keep it up! You’re only going to get faster
08:20 I hear a song in this. It's called Gallows Humor. Djent, Djent, Djent, Djent...
Like no. 600 😎
50k!!
I KNOW RIGHT !!!!! TOO AMAZING :D ROAD TO 100k!
I know that this has nothing to do with drumming, but do you know what a V22 Osprey is?
No I dont?!
@@WyattStav ua-cam.com/video/xmGuD5Pza8M/v-deo.html
I think that ep 2 and ep 1 could be reversed but overall very useful
This is such a useful lesson! How long did it take you to master the double pedal or get to a professional standard? I’ve been playing with a double pedal for about 3 years now and I can only play 16th notes at about 175 bpm, that’s why I was shocked to hear Gabe managed it in 5 weeks😂 is this the level I should be at after 2 ish years or am I just not built for the double pedal?
Heyo dude! I also played a long time with the wrong technique on the double bass. Then after years of not playing it felt like to learn to walk again. Now, after about 4 months daily 2-4 hours practice, I m on a good Level, but it would take Lots more time to get there where I wanted to be. So try different techniques and find the one that feels comfortable for you to play, Master it and get to the next one. So I Do and i cant complain about the progress. Greets from Germany!
I’m comfortable with my technique, progress is just very slow for me😂 thanks for the advice bro! Greetings from England
8:17
I hate it my feet can’t get to a consistent high speed. They get stuck doing these gallops..
Bro u gotta cover the Our Last Nights cover of the game of thrones theme song
I gotta check that cover out!
@@WyattStav not sure if its hard on the drums or not. In not a drummer i just enjoy your channel and try to help out with some thumbs up love
third or fourth? not really sure
hahaha it died at you ;D
do not quantize too much those bass strokes, they sound like midi.
Great content but this is too hard for a beginner. Well at least I find it extremely difficult.
I STRONGLY suggest you download the MP3 packs off my soundcloud.. they start at 100 bpm.. and is a MUCH easier starting point for beginners!!! - soundcloud.com/wyattstav the downloads are completely free.. just grab the tempos that work for you!!!
@@WyattStav Thanks Wyatt!
If you're practicing this at home with your own metronome and starting out at 130 bpm then I can imagine why it seems so hard. 130 is fast and he's actually only playing at 65 bpm in that first exercise, and 100 in the second.
ARMYStrongHOOAH17 that’s incorrect. I list the note values at 7:57. If what you were saying is true then I wouldn’t be using the note values I assigned. I max the pyramid at 16ths. So the tempo values I gave were exact. No need to half. The reason you may be stating this is because my hands are in half time feel... and this was intentional because it makes it easier for newer players to tackle the tuplet sections. After all this FEET... so the focus is footwork,. Not on the hand placement.
Safest Assets your very welcome! I hope those downloads help you 🤘🏻😁
Second?
Lets see if we can keep this going.. LOL
Are you really Ronnie Radke?
first ;)
I hope you enjoy :)
Bro your hands are great enough to not use trigs. Natural snare and tom sound beautiful. You can do it
200 BPM USING HIP FLEXOR FULL LEG MOTION HOLY MOLY
What snare head are you playing ? Evans 360 2-ply ?
