Re: Jojo Mayers bass drum technique
Yeah, that's one of the best videos about his feet technique so far! Old but good! He has added some new weapons to his technical arsenal but all in all it's all based on the free stroke it's...

Re: Is this cheating?
That doesn't matter how tight or loose you set those springs, if you use them on bass drum pedals, that's cheating already!

Re: Jojo Mayer Stroke
Yes, it is a VERY complex technique! I'd put in the same boat with the push-pull and other these type of variations, it's actually pretty easy to get down the basic movement, but it's extremely hard...
