  • Very good lesson. Look I've looked at dozens of push pull videos. Forget what others say, your presentation is very good and covers a lot of approaches to get the were we all want to go. I have the feel in my hands, I understand what is happening, I'm just trying to get to the point where that is little of no effort. Always, always, always strive for loose.

  • @webstercat

    THANKS! and yes .. always strive for loose .. the only way to get there .. is to practice a lot ... driving 1 handed and drumming on the dashboard with the other hand passes the time .. lol

  • ugh, i don't think i like the technique at all. you can hear the inconsistency in the sound from the beginning when it's slow, and speeding up doesn't cover up it up at all. it's also messy rhythmically. you've obviously put in the time, but i think your technique is limiting.

    no offense, but i don't see the point. i haven't used it, but it doesn't seem like it can be clean

  • no offense taken. i feel it works for me but if you don't like it then that's your thing. just thought i'd throw it out there. .. it can be clean with enough practice though. on jojo mayer's dvd he plays it 2x as fast as me and perfectly clean. obviously i'm nowhere as good as him, just throwing it out there

  • how long did it take u to master this?

  • i still havn't mastered it as much as i want to.  but it took about 2 years or so to get where i am.

see all

  • Great! Thank you for your time and effort. I just started with this technique. I have the JoJo Mayer DVD but I appreciate any details to this technique, to me it seems not that easy to learn. Your video presents it in a crystal clear way, thanks again!

  • I disagree... It's a great method in speeding up your hand speed (especially single strokes). It isn't that the strokes don't sound equal, they have accents. (As most rudiments do)

    I'm trying to learn it myself, I hope I can get this fast

  • Very good Explanation!

  • Amazing...
