- Here is a video on how to play different types of rimshots with both the traditional and the matched grip. The snare drums I am using are a Canopus Zelkova 5x14" drum and a Sonor Horst Link cast bronze HLD593 4x14" drum. Here are some links to videos from my book Broad Strokes that feature lots of rimshots:

Rick-- I've not seen a clearer, easier to follow lesson on the different types of rimshots to date.
Several features of your videos watched so far that make them outstanding:
--no annoying video starts with irrelevant, loud or flashy graphics
--no noisy background music to distract/or detract from content
-- no rushing through instruction quickly with incomplete pointers (like so many tutorials that just throw out the info in a flash).
--your personal stories about working with the content being taught, which makes the lesson feel relevant.
You're a great teacher, thanks for your contributions to the drumming community. Keep them coming!
bluesky best top for was positioning angle of the left hand. just trying that worked very well for me immediately. no more mystery... just many reps to be consistent
12:38 "I am not using anything special today for a stick" , This is the stick that Vic Firth makes me".
Thanks for the comprehensive explanation on rim shots, Rick. You are the best!
Beautiful demonstration Rick, especially with 2 snares. Great to see how a professional addresses the different rim shot techniques. Thankx for responding to my request.
Rick, thank you for this! I've always struggled with rimshots in traditional grip and your technique is impeccable!
Your hand control on those rimshots is insane.
Hi Rick! Thanks so much for this nice demonstration. Great sounds,so many options.
Fun explanation way more informative and interesting than I thought it was gonna be🙂expertly presented 👌👍
Pure explanations Rick Thx 🙏🏻
Excellent vid and explanation Rick. Thank you for your time!
Great video. Thank you
Thanks Rick
Awsooome thanks
I'd love to see you play a timbale + snare solo. Aftering seeing your solo here I'm sure it would be incredible.
Where was your cascara though???
Search for Caliente Snare Drum in my Broad Strokes playlist.
That is a timbale influenced snare drum solo.
Hi Rick, Thank you for the awesome content. Just a question, how do you go about playing ghost notes straight after rimshots? (Say within the context of a 16th note groove) I find it very difficult to get a controlled tap straight after a rimshot. Any ideas on how to possibly fix this?
Hi Jamie
I play my rimshots with a bouncing stroke so that I can play the ghost notes in between them. If your wrist is stiff, it is much harder to play them in a jazz setting as well.
Try to loosen your grip and let the rimshot stroke bounce up slightly. Then drop the stick for the ghost notes. You will find that Garibaldi's book Future Sounds has some great exercises for this.
@@rickdior Okay I’ll try this, thanks for getting back to me, I appreciate it.
Great tutorial thanks, what sticks are you using?
The sticks are the ones that I make.
You can see them if you search for my drumstick videos.
Hmmm, isn’t what you are calling a “Cross-rim” traditionally called a Cross-Stick? I think that’s what PASIC has aligned on for teaching and notation.
Hi John
When I was coming up in NYC all the drummers and band leaders called it a cross rim click so that's what I call it.
I just did an entire video on this subject a few days ago. It will probably go up next week.
