How To Spin Your Drumsticks
The drum artist clearly demonstrates a couple relatively complicated "flip tricks" with one hand. Pay close attention to the fingers as he breaks each one of them down slowly!
Hi, I'm Rick from the Music Workshop Company. I'm going to show you some tips on how to drum. I am now going to show you a couple of stick tricks.
Now, before we do stick tricks, I must endorse the fact that you should have your drum beats together before you attempt doing stick tricks. We'll start off with a simple stick trick. It involves actually playing a drum beat at the same time.
Basic rock. Now, what we are going to do, is we are going to one single flip. Put that together with the drum beat.
Now, the other one is the twirl. Okay? This takes quite a long time to master. You basically start here and then you go down in between like that.
