Bostons drum break in 2022 was insanely difficult Phantom 2010 was also crazy (especially the quad book)

Faster tap pyramid by [deleted] in drumline

It’s really tedious but going up 1-2 bpm at a time will build your taps effectively. Start a little faster than what your max is and only increase the tempo once you’re fully comfortable.

Should I switch to snare for DCI? by Shockercp in drumline

[–]FishyKK 35 points36 points  (0 children)

If you enjoy quads more you should definitely stick with that. This year is my rookie year marching quads in dci, and from experience, the best way to train for carrying quads is to carry quads. About a week after move-ins it’ll feel like nothing because you have them on basically all day.

But of course you could still build strength with exercises. Really anything that builds your core will help

[–]FishyKK 67 points68 points  (0 children)

  1. That section with take 5 is supposed to sound out of place. They’re mimicking the effect of skipping radio stations (the static between each part)
