@sugarytumor Not all players play with accent on para-diddle.

@12345timm try play this sticking pattern... R rr L ll R rr L ll (Capitals indicating accents of course) and really work on playing the 'down stroke' (accent) and then playing the diddle as a controlled bounce stroke. So here you are leaving out the up stroke and focussing on the down stroke and controlling the bounce to get the diddle. At faster tempos it is this exercise that (in my opinion) will be of great benefit. Of course...PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE. Start slow :) Good luck!

accents... they make a paradiddle...

A paradiddle without an accent is usually called an unaccented paradiddle. If you play a true paradiddle, you need an accent. If the PAS official rudiment list says it has an accent, then you play an accent. Sure you can play it without one, for stick control, different writing, exercises, etc. but it isn't a true paradiddle. Just my 2 cents.

I'm not watching his vids anymore.. it's called accents bro!

He is not saying there isn't an accent he is saying its easier to practice with and accent on the second one so you start to get the feeling of not making the second beat to small and uneven.

accents up taps down
mrsir,
im sorry to say this buuuut,
there IS an accent at the beginning of every
paradiddle, paradiddle-diddle etc.
there isnt really much of an accent on yours,
you might want to start practicing with an accent.

its the correct way.

@TheEpicNARWHALS LOL. alright, go look up paradiddles on google images. or go look at a vic firth rudiment poster. all of them have accents on the downbeats. ALL OF THEM HAVE ACCENTS ON THE DOWNBEATS. so you are saying, that should ignore that right!? that you are right, and that everyone else that knows how to play a correct paradiddle is wrong? i was just trying to help you, gosh. if dudes like you have a crappy attitude to constructive criticism, you will never make it anywhere. i promise.
