Not much rebound, low end stuff is hard to articulate, but it has a ton of cons so overall I highly recommend it, there’s also a bit of drag and resistance but it goes away the more you play it
What about crossovers involving the spock drums? (As in left hand on the 8 inch and the right crossing over to drum four and stuff like that). They’re pretty uncommon but I’ve never seen anyone bring those up when explaining crossovers. Thanks for the vid, amazingly helpful as always :D
Those are fairly dependent on stick length and how far up you hold your stick. For me (steven) it tends to be hand over stick. But honestly, whatever gets the job done will do. I suppose we can mention that in the next video on crossovers. Thanks for bring it up!
trying to figure out the stick-on-stick method for 1 drum crossovers. Im playing (R)lrrll on 1&2 with the (R) crossing over to drum 2. Always seem to hit my bottom stick on the crossover. my left hand is staying at the tap height the entire time so do I have to crossover more to make it happen or raise my right arm?
Right wrist should lift a little to get the top stick over the bottom stick. Shouldn't be that much! But you do need to lift. And no, if you're in the correct zones, you shouldn't need to cross more for that particular around.
On the 1 drum crossovers, should you make it more wrist over wrist we are playing double strokes with both hands? When I keep stick over stick my under stick doesn’t get enough vertical range to play a good double stroke
Double strokes are one of those exceptions where you should do wrist on wrist. Stick on stick is very difficult and not worth pursuing that particular scenario
There are some considerations. Firstly, that is one of the reason quad players prefer holding the stick more towards the butt rather than choked up like snare players do. You may be choked up too much. Secondly, you may be over crossing or undercrossing. If you can get away with a smaller crossover without compromising the playing zones, try that. Or if you can do wrist or wrist, you can clear the stick so you don't hit yourself. Thirdly, your top hand may not be getting high enough. The top hand should be doing the most adjusting for the crossover so perhaps you're not lifting that top wrist enough. It may be 1 of these issues or all of these issues so experiment and figure out what is most comfortable and least impeding for you to use. Hope this helps!
It was some stock laminate I bought at Office Depot. I was experimenting with different materials. But after spending time without any laminate, I have become accustomed to this pad's texture.
Hey Steven can you make a video on scrapes. That would be awesome. Thanks for all the hard work
We're going to be having a long series on scrapes :) It's coming
planning on buying one of those prologix tenor pads. can you describe how they feel???
I’m pretty sure it’s laminate

I am new to this channel, but I will def continue watching. Could you make a video on those parradiddles? That would be an awesome fill section

Any tips on how to do wrist crossovers without smashing the back of your hand with the butt of the stick?
There are some considerations. Firstly, that is one of the reason quad players prefer holding the stick more towards the butt rather than choked up like snare players do. You may be choked up too much.

@@TheQuadMethod Is that a Quad practice pad?
Would you still consider this the go to tenor pad to practice on? Have heard the rebound is not great but it seems to he the preferred pad.
Hey, looks like you've got a laminate of some sort on that pad. Mind if I ask what it is/where you got it?

@@TheQuadMethod Gotcha, gotcha. Thanks for the answer!
