Geoff - I think I've watched every Darkbuka lesson on TH-cam on split hand - you are still the best at explaining and demonstrating techniques that I've found. Hope you post some more videos soon! Thanks!
03:58 but relaxing the fingers to "limp" condition makes all neighbour fingers to strike the drum as well *(they also get limp - and gravity and inertia makes them to strike the drum)... When i try to strike Ka with the limp ring finger - my limp middle finger lands a strike too. Same problem with the index, my my middle finger also lands and produce a double strike. How do you isolate the ring and index fingers from the rest of hand? Selective "limping" keeping middle finger stiff "at demand"? I dont get it, I can relax all the fingers at the same time - or none.
Geoff Childers in Hindi the line goes through the top of the text but not Arabic. I think whoever made it was confused. As it has pesh and zabar in it too. Anyways great job u are very talented and good tutor

You want to keep your middle finger fairly straight. It should be straight enough to avoid hitting the drum but still relaxed.
Excellent lesson, but I would preffer a more profound Dum sound, I think it was becouse you were sitted on a couch and it absorbed the sound. Thanks!
The font in ur text on thumbnail is in Hindi style not Arab style. Just telling In case you think it's the same thing.
That's interesting; the font is called "Arabian one-night-stand."

I thought the double ka is actually using the rebound of the ring finger to make two hits out of it with a single motion of the wrist.
Some players do it that way. I believe that's how Raquy does it.
We arabs do lt only with ring finger
you know how to teach respect from a morrocan try to learn and teach the north african styles 6/8 for example
You should explain and SHOW in slow motion with what fingers you play
