As a drummer myself, I've seen many different styles of stick twirling, some are mere clever illusions of twirling but YOURS demonstrates the intricate finger moves that the slo-mo brings out!!!
100%. I know the whole "make a peace sign with your pointer and middle and just flick your wrist around" but its just an illusion, this is actually hard as shit and I've been trying for like an hour now lol
So far you're the first one on UA-cam who's actually shown demonstrations using both hands everyone on UA-cam twirls with their right hand and I'm assuming because they can't twirl with their left hand you obviously can twirl with both hands. So you have my respect, a like and a sub!
Looks as hard as rolling a coin across the knuckles. I’m determined to learn anyway. Thanks for sharing all your education and drumming experience! Respect ✊
I have now been learning drums for 3 weeks. It is time to learn stick twirling. My twirling is now 3 weeks behind. Cant believe my tutor didn’t actually start me on it b4 the snare. Thanks Gordo Drummer.
Hey man, love your stuff! I just wanna say the way you busk is very unique and its amazing to see people make music out of "random" items. Something I could recommend for your drumb stick twirling if you don't mind is look into this hobby called pen spinning. The tricks on there could be easily translated to drumbsticks and would look 10x more flashy. Again love your stuff! Keep up the good work!
THANK YOU! That showed me a “proper twirl” and some bits I didn’t know. Now will just practise this like a rudiment. I know my paradiddles sucked 2 years ago - now they’re OK. Yes, it takes a ton of repetitions before more complex move like this become automatic.
The best drum stick twirling video I’ve ever seen! How long did you practice to reach this expert level?? I wish I could do this.... thanks for the tutorial. ...always take enough water and salt to survive Japanese summer... ;)
I'm not sure why I got this in my recommended but I really enjoyed it. First because I used to be in the majorettes (a long, long time ago) and I still do some of this with my wooden spoons (do this before putting it in the pasta sauce...), or with pens. Second because in the slow motion I was imagining your fingers being painted and they would look like a sea animal of some sort. Thank you for making my evening! Nicole
I looked up this video because i was wondering how other people do this, specifically the orientation the keep their palm while doing it. I just learned to do it best with my palm aiming to the side slightly canted rather than up like ive seen other players do it. I also found it interesting that you find its easier to spin towards yourself to set up the next stroke/beat. You mentioned you rise your hand in preparation for the next stroke as you spin towards yourself. I personally find that it feels more comfortable for me to spin away from myself and quickly raise up then down all the while doing the spin right up until just before the next beat. Im no expert at it but i decided to take some time to finally perfect it lately which is partly what sent me down this rabbit hole. Its really interesting what techniques drummers tend to find for comfortable when then are first learning a new aspect of drumming. For example heel-toe vs slide (Heel-toe was significantly more intuitive for me than slide. But i wanted to play both interchangeably so badly that i eventually finally figured out the "feel" for slide. That taught me how important it was, for me at least, to learn every technique rather than sticking to what felt natural. There are grooves i come up with or hear in my favorite songs that I never would have been able to play if i didn't have the slide technique in my arsenal as well. Theres so many more examples of this in drumming and to anyone reading this i highly recommend you get at the very least rudimentarily familiar with every common technique. Moeller, Push-Pull, Matched grip and its three parts that should be used fluidly (German, American and French), traditional grip etc etc. Anyways i sure went off on a ramble this time lol.
I am soooooo happy to see you ❤!!! I wondered where you were after the bucket concert!!! I bought my sticks! I hope some rock band hired you!!!!!!!!❤❤❤ What’s your story? Who taught you? Did you teach your self?
Great video, dude! I always got a kick out of seeing Tommy Lee of Motley Crue doing these twirls. He made them look so easy. It's a bit gimmicky, sure, but it fits so well with rock music. Any time a camera was on him, he'd do a twirl between every damn beat. He was the 1980's twirl master. Haha! But seriously, thanks for the video.
When are you auditioning for America's got talent???? I'm positive you'd get the Golden buzzer!!!!! And after that people's votes will make you win!!!!!!!!!! Man I'm sure you would win because I would pay to go watch your show in Vegas. You should do it! You have nothing to loose!

U should make some merch for your drumming cause that would be fire🔥. Id buy it without a second thought. Like some jumpers, hats, T-shirt’s and maybe even drumsticks. Love u Gordo😁
You have a video of you in the streets jamming with 134 million views. The best I ever seen or heard. Is he a friend that is helping you? Wondering why his video of you is 6 times more popular then your channel.
Subscribed! (: Glad you made your own YT page. Always liked your street performance from years ago. PS. Bg music title, anyone? Link in descrip sent me to some other song. LOL I just realised this is the song they used in "satifsying videos compilation" hahahah well can't say this slomo wasnt satisfying!
If you guys are planning to learn this without a drum stick, a pen could help. As a fellow pen spinner, this is very close to the finger pass. So learning this with the drum stick was rlly easy.

Imagine twirling like that while drumming so fast 😳
Check Eric Moore
Mick Tucker was the king of twirling.
Some years ago I use to see this guy playing on the streets. ...Damn!!! That uprise tho!!

Check out Drumeo, dude on there shows many stick tricks.

Hey mate, was a rock n roll drummer back inthe 70s, tried spinning but did my head in, you make it look easy , enjoy japan and have fun, cheers
I have now been learning drums for 3 weeks. It is time to learn stick twirling. My twirling is now 3 weeks behind. Cant believe my tutor didn’t actually start me on it b4 the snare. Thanks Gordo Drummer.
Tell me why the heck did I read that as "coronavirus" 4:43
We are starting to see things my friend
Omg that’s weird 😂 I saw it too
The Mandela effect

Ptsd
Dummer: AMAZING
Pen spinner: that's cute
finger pass lmao
Stick twirling is definitely on my bucket list.
I just chucked my stick in frustration and it hit my brother in the head lol he's prolly dead
I laughed wayy too hard at this 😂💀
lazerfang 123 your profile pic says it xD
Imagine dying from a drum stick
lazerfanger 123 i love your picture
I almost broke my crash symbol cause I was mad.
Wow, that music in the slow motion scenes was relaxing as hell. Or maybe Im just that tired
Me: *doesn’t play drums*
Also me: *watching this so I can be like Roger Taylor*
but dont forget you need to be able to scream galileo .
What about jimmy the rev Sullivan from advenged sevenfold he twirled his drums sticks like that on the video .
*avenged
Gordo drummer: drum stick twirling in slow motion
Me: drum dtick twirling in fast motion
Me: drum stick in my mom's head

Thanks for the great tutorial👍
Thanks Gordo! My grandson's (aged 4&5) always look for you when we go into the cbd at Sydney. Inspirational and so creative!

Hi
Thank you for the video. I don't have full range of motion of my right pinky finger. Is it possible to do this technique without the pinky finger?
U should make some merch for your drumming cause that would be fire🔥. Id buy it without a second thought. Like some jumpers, hats, T-shirt’s and maybe even drumsticks. Love u Gordo😁
Instructions not clear drumstick is now guitar pic
This is so cool jimmy the rev Sullivan from advenged sevenfold twirled his drum sticks like that
I have stubby fingers so it's going to take me a bit longer to get this I think. But thanks for the slo-mo, it helps a bunch.
So smooth
Thank you so much. Very impressive.

I luv it this channel
Magician!!!
How many times have you dropped the stick before you got it to work?
Craziest comb over ever!!!
Even though I played the drum for a long time, I couldn't try it well. It's explained in detail and easy to see the video. I need to practice.
I could do it but not as fast as you. Good job!😘
