    I have trouble finding interesting snare breaks/warmups so these videos are really awsome they give me somthinig to do and you are so good at breaking it down in to understandable chunks i was wondering though if you could put a PDF of the sheet music in the description of your videos so that once i learn the whole thing i can have a whole sheet for reference

    This is awesome! I learned this a few months ago, but it was difficult for me to feel the 11/16 in my head for while, so I'm glad you made this so others can learn this easier! As for the next tutorial, you should do Ditty 08 Remix. There is barely anything online covering it, but I think it's super underrated and definitely worth people's time learning it.

    This is a good one! I'm still struggling with the cheeses and inverted triple stroke threes in measures 23 & 24, but other than that this one is actually doable for me, I'm gonna be working on this before my next season starts

    yes that are very hard, I find that concentrating on the two quiet taps (3 if you include the grace note of the flam) not the flams (or cheese) helps keep my hands moving.

    i don't want to discourage you, but learning traditional is fine, but this exercise in general is just way too hard if you're just learning traditional. BD stuff in general is meant to be for some of the best of the best. This exercise is great, but some of the nastier chops and stuff you might have to do under tempo for a year or so before that left hand will be strong enough to hit some of those chops. Just a friendly word so there isn't any disappointment if it's too hard.

    Quick Question: I've been trying to get my double stroke rolls stronger. Currently the first beat in the double is very accented because of the rebound. I tried the double beat exercise and it was great at getting the beats to be the same volume when I went slow. But when I sped it up I had to use the rebound to stay in tempo, but that led to my first double being accented again. See the problem I'm having? Are there any tips you'd recommend for getting my double stroke rolls to be stronger and more even? PS: I cannot tell you how helpful your videos have been. You break everything down slowly and simply and it really demystifies things. I saw Santa Clara Vanguard's 2018 snare break and was like "yeah I'll never be able to play that". But after seeing your video I realized that if was just faster versions of things that I was already familiar with. It was SO helpful. You're great at what you do! Keep making videos!

    I struggled with doubles a lot too, how I got them clean was just to practice simple open rolls (rrllrrll...) on a pad while i listened to a podcast or watched videos or tv episodes or whatever. It's tedious work, but your doubles will get a lot cleaner and tighter just by working on them for extended periods of time
