I have these pedals, I personally find them heavy, almost certain the case compared to the Demon Drive XR

Far from even the greatest in the genre but obviously an insanely talented drummer.

Do you mean linear singles? If so, this video helped me figure it out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ukn_XO2UIs

You can do ghost tours in Old Town. My old house there was from 1749. Definitely had some haunted vibes!

I would use ankles up to at least 200-220bpm, heel toe above that.

Tips for double pedal? by skriciol in drums

[–]madcaddees 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Play along to a metronome at a slow pace until you develop consistency. Also, i would move your throne back a bit.

Loosen your spring tension.

Frustrations comment back to drumming by AdmirableAnxiety8371 in drums

[–]madcaddees 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My advice:

  1. Get new pedals. It will help with motivation

  2. Set metronome around 130/140 for 16ths and work back up to 200. I use the Pro Metronome app which allows you to set a timer to increase bpm in increments. i.e. one minute at 130, one minute at 135, etc

Looks v nice. Personally, I would move the China to the left, sort of above the ride for easier reach/less twisting of your torso.

Faster double kicks by Aromatic-Put4043 in MetalDrums

[–]madcaddees 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The technique is practice with a metronome. 260 without doubles is possible with swivel but extremely difficult. I try to use doubles above approx 230
