  • @charlierulz98 lmbo! right! hahaha

  • @MaxJaeger

    1. When doing rudiments and solos, always play with click.

    2. Mirror is for correcting off hand improper stick heights.... obviously... you must have spent hell lots of time playing with a weaker hand since you are one of those who don't correct it via mirror and stick height correcting.

    3. If you grind on the pad long enough, your double strokes and other rudiments should adjust themselves. It is just a matter of having your fingers used to different surfaces.

  • @sophiemolossi SAME WITH ME

  • why have you put a question mark after he word "dick"? Are you asking for dick?

  • Dont Listen To This. Just Have Fun And You Dont Need To Be A Perfectionist Just Jam Out To Your Favorite Song And HAVE FUN

  • Explained well. Thanks

  • 1. u shouldnt allways play with the click

    2. mirror... if your ego needs that

    3. "I spend a lot of time at the practice pad". we can hear that

    By the way, just to clarify for you kids. His practice pad is made out of rubber, which will give you a lot more rebound than a floor tom..

    4. Stick control is not an instrument. In the 2010 we call that a book.

    5. Your hands arent with the click, WTF grips... explanation?

    U shouldnt teach anybody anything. Please take that video off the web

  • You look funny..=D

  • where can i get a practice pad from??
