So I have been playing this steady for about 4 to 5 days but Tommy are you changing the sticking randomly? I started doing it with the same sticking as a rule none of the melody notes are played with in a double only single correct?
I seems like your sticking is the same but then again you are going pretty fast so I could be wrong love this idea I want try it with a triplet based pattern. Love the concept thanks Tommy

I got lost when the accents switched to your left hand.

When Tommy play with both hands the sticking is: Single Paradiddle-Single Paradiddle-Double Paradiddle-Single Paradiddle-Double Paradiddle-Double Paradiddle-Double Paradiddle ;)

First answer is not 100% correct, since this would yield 36 32nd notes, but in 32nd notes, this is a 1 bar exercise.
The exact sticking Tommy plays is (32nd notes):
RLRR LRLL RLRL RRLR
LLRL RLRR LRLR LLRL
Chapter 2 of Casey Scheuerell‘s book „Berkley Jazz Drumming“ elaborates on this if you want to know more.
