@@codycoyote7046no but like is the same technique effective for singles?or fast singles? Maybe I’m tripping but when I use this technique for straight singles it feels to separated, like a fast dodo dodo dodo dodo
Love it! What do you mean by working on singles in a heel-down position? Like just do lots of single bass exercises with heel down to develop strength? Even if I play heel up? Cheers!
Hi yes, that will develop strength and endurance which will help you greatly once you switch back to heel up. Faster singles mean faster doubles later on. Cheers!
Yes I think having it far back is much better because that way it has more inertia and it is easier to make the hits. That way you play with the pedal and the beater rather than with your leg. Buddy Rich famously practiced with the spring detached to develop the rebound. While I think that’s extreme it gave me the idea of having a bigger amplitude to help with power and endurance. Also this way the spring can be more loose and you don’t have to fight it as much. Hope that helps.
So this is just one of 2 widely known techniques for a double stroke on the bass drum. This is called the "slide" technique. The other technique is called "heel toe" technique. Cobus Potgeiter's drum covers are a masterclass in the "heel toe" technique. Great demonstration!
Eh.. it helps more to wear steel toe combat boots laced up tight and play until the boots are wore out.. then go to a tennis shoe or running shoe that ends before the ankle.. that first time you play with the new light shoes youll be amazed at how easy it is for you. And invest in a good driven pedal or like an axis pedal that has the extra wide area.. or say fuck it and get a double action pedal or triggers..
I'd say it's possible, but might put more tension on the leg as a whole. What I've shown here is good to get you started, but you might have to tweak it along the way. Cheers
Doubles in the foot are the same as doubles in the hands. Shouldn’t really be that much movement of the arm/legs. Control the bounce and let the drum do the work for you. Imagine you are tap dancing when playing bass doubles and focus on developing the fast twitch muscles of your calf and toes.

Wished I knew this fifty-five years ago!
You can also do this but rest your heel back on the second hit and tap with toes to finish, that's how I get 3 notes!
Lol whatever works for your body chemistry is just fine as long as youre making the same note
Very good information, technique and demonstration.
Thank you, very kind of you!
I think this is the best demonstration for doubles on youtube
Dude! Thanks so much! I'm trying to be mostly self-taught with everything, but little tips here and there will help speed things up
Your lessons are innovative! Bravo Sir!!
Thanks a lot 302kid
Bro's doing drag clicking on his Pedal 💀
I’m starting learning drums after playing guitar a while and this definitely helps😁
Do one of these for singles please
He literally tells you in the video how to work on singles.

I'm getting into drums this is very nice to know! Well taught
Thank you so much I’m a beginner and this helps so much
Thank you, very good information!🥁😎🤘♥️
new skill unlocked
Thank you I will try that
WOW 😂. MR MELODY !!!!!!🤣
So smooth looking ive never really found my sweet spot with pedal adjustments your better looks set far back does that help?

I use the heel toe technique. If you master either of these two, it's very rewarding for the drum fills you're able to do.
I believe the heel toe is easier to master than the slide technique.
How can the leg not get exhausted by this? You’re holding it up in the air? Or am I missing something
It does get tired but it gets better with time. Playing with your ankles is way more efficient so you end up saving a lot of energy in the end.
Im a lead guitarist I tried this in air and now I have a fucking calf cramp
i have fast singles but when combining 2 feet it's a mess, out sync, sometimes they hit at the same times sometimes there are 16th notes at 200 bpm
cool 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
How tight does the spring need to be?
🔥🔥⚡️

Or you can just tap twice, as long as it’s limited to two strokes, you don’t need your heel at all.
It’s true I do that all the time.
So much tension in my hip flexor tho
Exactly. Tryin to figure out the right way bc it feels wrong
Any luck for either of you guys?
Hi guys, you don’t need to play like this all the time. It’s when you need to make a quick double. Hope that helps.
Those sneakers tho
Is slide technique doable with not burying the beater
I'd say it's possible, but might put more tension on the leg as a whole. What I've shown here is good to get you started, but you might have to tweak it along the way. Cheers
Should I practice with single kick speed like you said in the heeldown if my double kicks are not clean
Yes I think this would result in faster and cleaner doubles for sure.
💣💥🥁🎶💯🤘
I don’t even have a drumset. Never will. Why am I here
Why are we all
🤘😎🤘
my foot always gets stuck :(
I wish RUclips had an algorithm for paraplegic drummers lol
And what if you’re barefoot or have certain socks and can’t slide on the pedal?
Doesn’t work then I guess
@@DrumApe lol clear enough. Thanks for the reply!

I can't do it my single strokes are faster because my doubles are too manual
There are other technics to double tap
Of course there are
There's a mistake... Playing the drums wearing Chuck Taylor's lol. Learned that when I was like 15. Man, the bruise on my foot
