@adamtuminaro89 Yes, but according to Weckl and many moeller' s users the grip is between first and middle finger. I saw him in a clinic. It is strange, infact i don' t use Moeller
Confused.. why are you holding the stick in your right hand that way? It seems like you're holding it with your bottom fingers because your 1st finger comes off the stick often.
Lol not so much man. There are dozens of ways to hold a drumstick, I'm just not familiar with this particular style, and I'm not very sure that it IS an actual style.
@adamtuminaro89 Have you payed attention to most drummers? The index finger should hang loosely off of the stick. Pay attention to any famed drummer (Vinnie Colaiuta, Mike Portnoy, Chris Coleman, etc.) Although you can create a fulcrum between the index finger and thumb, and although most people teach this way, the fulcrum will naturally move to the middle finger and thumb.
To answer your ridiculous question, "have I payed attention to most drummers?" That would be a yes. This is not a popular grip by any means, and I'm not convinced its anything more than a lame variation of an american matched grip. Vinnie sometimes resembles what you're talking about, but I'd like to see a clip where Coleman does this. Why would it make sense to bring the fulcrum back, and have loose fingers in front of, and behind the stick.
@adamtuminaro89 Ok, you obviously haven't a clue about what you are talking about. Not a popular grip by any means? Dude, almost EVERY drummer holds the stick like this. It IS matched grip. The index finger gives extra stability to the stick, and the back fingers perform most of the motion. People who use the index finger and the thumb as the main fulcrum are people who have bad technique, due to the back fingers being weak.
@adamtuminaro89 The pinky and ring finger are attached to the largest muscles in your hand, save the thumb. Did you know that? When you properly work the back fingers, you have the ability to hold the stick in this manner. The PROPER manner. The only time when using the front fulcrum is truly a liable technique is when more power and finesse is needed, and said needs cannot be met by just the back fingers. The middle finger is then added for more muscle power.
I'd like to see a video (or 20) of this explained. After all it IS matched grip, so that should be no trouble. Also, you're saying that what I've described as correct should ONLY be used when power and finesse is needed? What genre of music requires neither of these? Doesn't make sense. I simply posted to get the video owner's explanation of this technique, not your unsupported claims about hand technique as a whole.
@adamtuminaro89 Okay, we are obviously on two different sides of an argument here. I don't want it to be like that. I'm just trying to give you the explanation that you seek. My apologies for becoming defensive. Now, what you describe should be used for power and ENDURANCE more so than finesse. As you said, all styles of music incorporate these things at one time or another, and the drummer's grip will change as needed. The technique this guy is using is simply what the
@adamtuminaro89 hand naturally does when you play in a smooth, relaxed manner. Watch your hands when you play, and you'll see what I mean. Again, sorry about the misunderstanding. It was my fault.
can i have the pattern? thanks!

@adamtuminaro: probably he uses the Moeller technique, the grip is between first and third finger.

Moeller is a wrist technique. I'm taking about the large gaps between his first finger and the stick.
