  • german grip

  • Thank you kabasak. Yeah, Mike uses his larger muscles to go faster and avoid injury.

  • Wow. This is just called a rebound stroke. Nothing special.

  • @nanopola ... yeah totally ...not only that , but this guy`s technique is at best beginner level , at worst just plain bad .... you notice how the stick is bouncing around uncontrollably ...also , he never shows his left hand , i bet he cant get any rebound with it

  • this is barely a beginners level of finger control ... i bet his left hand is even worse and i am confident he cannot put them together .... this sucks

  • Hey adminnm2112,Mike Mangini IN HIS OWN WORDS,(check Modern Drummer Festival 2006),says his does not use fingers for WDF competitions,but wrists.(even though it seems like he uses fingers).

  • we are talking about WFD lol

    this technique will destroy you if you try to compete in WFD with it. the twitching is the most effective for this obviously, as the record holder uses it. yesss i know this isnt real drumming, but thats not what we are talking about.

    and on all levels, the finger technique is bad. but no need to argue, well just agree to disagree

  • um, drummeric33, the technique in this video is the kind of technique that is recommended everywhere from professional drummers. I play the Scottish snare drum, and there are very old professionals that teach that technique, and at their age, i haven't seen any of them develop tendinitis, because the finger technique is not dangerous, its the least stressful technique on the body known. i know of this "twitching motion". its not a real technique, and a terrible way to drum consistently.

  • uuh, clean your fingers dude!

  • yes i agree

    the first thing i learned is to use the fingers for fast beats on the hihat...

    sry for my band english :D
