Hi everyone,
My biggest technique problem is that when I am bouncing the left hand stick, it occasionally moves left or right while bouncing. I open my hand slightly to ease the grip to get more speed, but this is when the side to side bounce occurs. I tried using the other fingers as a guide to keep the stick bouncing straight up and down, but this then limits my speed.
Is this a common problem? It doesn't seem to effect the sound of the hit, but I know that it can't be as precise or efficient as hitting straight up and down. Does anyone have tips on how to correct this?
Thanks, ctdrummer
