Triplididdles
Technique by Kirby Jacobsen // September 23 2014
Continuing again with my rudimental presentations, here is a personal favorite entitled “Tripli-diddles.” These are a blast to play and a way to feel paradiddles as you never have before! This is a rudiment that lends itself well for the drumset, especially going around the toms.
Always start slow and play each exercise several times before proceeding to the next. Don’t forget to perform this and all rudiments at soft, medium and loud volumes.
Have fun and remember to lock it in the pocket.
