i cant see the video your showing but once i saw this brazilian drummer do something like, on his left hand he's playing traditional, then with the right hand he hit the drum then spins it, hits as if he were holding his left hand on traditional, his it again, then spins it in order for the stick to be in between his middle and indicator fingers, then back to original position
in between every R there are 2 L just as if it were a Backstick trick!
good luck =)

Well, I showed my drumline Cavies 95 last night.

And then spent all practice trying to get them to NOT play the Helicopter.

Thanks Hulka!

Well, let me know the next time you're in the Jersey area. You can come and demonstrate it and show them personally and effectively ruin any chance of teaching these kids anything for the next five years!

Yeah... I can do the two-handed version now.... I'm so happy... This really is a monumental time in my life... I'm crying

I looked through the entire thread, and I didn't see any on else with this problem, but I may have been wrong. When doing the claw, I keep getting the butt of the stick caught on the inside of the rim, is there anyways to prevent that? Or is it just continually moving your arm up and down?

ps. Xareoshin, at the end of one of your videos I think I saw you doing the 4 hit claw, am I right?

All you have to do is flatten your angle. When I used to do that, I noticed that my stick was almost completely straight up and down. When you flatten it, the tip and butt go in a circular motion instead of forward and back ward.

If you don't have this problem, then just move you sticks to the opposite side. If that doesn't work, then I can't help you.

Thanks! That really helped!
