Paradiddles

[toybitz]

I've been practicing 'em for a year almost a year now.

It improved me via:

better stick control
better single strokes
cleaner and more creative accents over the hi hat
playing relaxed
incorporated fills between toms, snare and bass drum.

have you ever burnt that midnight oil on paradiddles? if you did..what benefits did you get?

Accent, roll technics on toms and snare. Well its the basic thing to follow when it comes with intermediate drumming. hmmm it helped controling double my strokes combined with single strokes.

benefits for me hmm..

single and double strokes ko mas tumino
more fills and more grooves!
forced me to practice my dynamics, dahil ginagaya ko nun dati yung nasa vid ni kuya Dave Weckl 

at dahil sa pagpupuyat ko kakapractice ng paradiddles bumama ang grades ko! really!

OT
Please dont let it go on that way. Take it from me. Specially if you are now in college or university as other countries call it.

Though I never had failing grades during my studies, I did not excel either as I dont want to spend too much time studying. Now that I want to improve myself and take a masters degree, I cant. Simply because my grades does not qualify enough.

I think 90% of my playing is based on paradiddles and hybrid paradiddles. -Obviously because its a combination of singles and doubles!
