Basic Paradiddle Combinations

Nice, it's something I've been exploring myself recently, particularly between ride and snare as a jazz break/fill. Thanks!
 
Yes those are lot's of fun.. the inversions and sextuplet parradiddles are what that Benny Greb fill might have been inspired from.. they create a cool phrasing over the bar depending on the sticking..

Do you accent them or just play them straight? I use accents so I don't lose my mind lol..
I must admit it took me a good while to get my head around the paraddidle sextuplet or triplet thing and to be able to play them fast. A great thing to work on when you're on a plane, train or auto..
