Hey Maxx, make sure your pedal is set up right and make sure your head is tuned well....a port in the front head also makes a bass drum play faster...but nothing replaces just plain old woodshedding....or, you could give in to the darkside,

oh men, i just cant do double kick drum faster u,u

I have had a hard time doing this for years now. My kick drum has no head on the back does that have anything to do with it? Only has a head where the pedal is of course.

@BearGrylIs Oh, I agree with you completely. but my response was addressing hardstyl's frustrations(see below) with his own set up. I was merely making suggestions , in this very limited forum, as to what he might do to fix his kick problems. Most people who have that dilemma sit too close or too high or they tighten their stuff too much,etc,etc...I was just trying to help. But if there was an 'exact' way to play the drums there wouldn't be any wing-nuts on the hardware, right?
best,
BF

@rtcarleton i disagree with you...everyone has a different setup thats comfortable for them...there are no "exact" measurements you need

Yo hardstyle,
Aw come on, it can't be that bad....let's see....
Sit 14" back from your snare. Your ankle should be forward of your knee. adjust the spring to slightly tighter than med. tune the head med. tight. use a pillow of some sort and let it touch the playing head. install a port in your resonant head. the height of the beater is crucial. 1" too high and it moves too slow. 1" too low and there's too much resistance. or take lessons from me in n.cally and give in to the darkside

my double kick isnt that smooth and no matter how much i loosen, tighten and fix it i cant stop it from being tight, AWKWARD AND REALLY SLOW!

Yo Meat,
The 2nd part of the vid is similar to the 1st part, just faster because it's dbl-bass. As for how many cymbals I'm hiding, let me explain. This kit stays set up in my very active recording studio, where I'm asked to play in many differing styles from session to session. As such, I have about 2 of everything, so I have lotsa choices, not unlike a synthesizer: There are 2 rides, 2 chinas, 2 splashes, 4 crashes, hats, then various other metal things to hit. 17 in all! BIG FUN!
peaceout,
BF

If you watch the other videos Boba doesn't play that far away from the drums normally, but this was a kick drum lesson so I asked him to slide back some so the camera could catch the action.
