So I've been working pretty hard on increasing my kick speed. I'm seeing a pretty good increase in the past 3 weeks or so. I don't have a metronome at the moment but I know I'm above 200 bpm now. Starting to get the ankle motion down. It's f@#&ing hard though lol.

You mean double kick? Yes. I was reading some sh#t from Derrick Roddy on his forums and I've been following what he says as I think it makes the most sense.

Basically, I force my self to play faster than I can. He explains that there's no way of practicing ankle motion, (which is pretty much fundamental in speeds above 200bpm) , slowly. So instead force yourself to play at high speeds and your body will naturally adapt and learn what it needs to do in order to achieve the speed you want. He also explains that what people call the "swivel technique" isn't taught, but is developed naturally for some people.

Any advice is appreciated peart!

[Off-topic] PeartFan40:
This is old school, but well known advice. Some believe that you can inprove speed through certain techniques. But then there are those (like me), who believe mastering your rudiments develops speed and timing. If you're not already doing this, I recommend at least a solid hour of continuous rudiment training every day. Hash out your para-diddles, flams, etc, swap your lead foot regularly to balance them out. Also reversing your runs helps quite a bit. If you're a fan of cross-overs, you can speed those up by playing in the cross-over position, sustained for 1-2 mins at a time.

Everyone is different, but I find pushing down and slightly forward on the ball of my foot gives me great speed and power.:thumbup: It's obviously your choice, and what works well for you, but these techniques have served well for many. ;)

Hope that helps. :)

They need to learn. If other noobs see it they will learn also. I make no apologies for how I deal with noobs in this DEVELOPMENT forum.

Seriously, go to the other sites I mentioned and look at dev threads. Full of links to XDA and questions on how they messed up. It's as though they are our support site. I like that and want to keep it that way.

I could care less if you have a $500 paperweight. You need the proper way to fix it. Stifling development is not how to do it.

Let's talk about drumming influences. Which drummers influenced you to play and try to emulate.

Mine were;

Neil Peart - my #1 influence

John Bonham- I hated Bonham at first because I just couldn't get his groove. A masterful genius. It was the way he could swing the beat that confounded me.

Bernard Purdie- Ironically, Bernard s half time shuffles, are what led me to be able to play Bonham grooves. It's all about that swing.

The are others too. Your turn:D
