www.FreeDrumLes... - In this video lesson, I talk about how to develop your finger technique on the practice pad. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to email me at jared@railroadmedia.com.
Do it along to a click, too. This means you work on keeping it tight and can progressively build up your speed while staying in control.
Excellent advice.........
At 47 i am playing..(.loose term) drums for 30 years or more ..I hit a brick wall aboyt 20 years ago when i just couldnt get any speed ....Not many drum teachers tell u about the finger technique,they just say practise..i gave up till i saw this
3:55 he stare in your soul
I was literally about to write the exact same thing.

simple as that
Jared's gaze is a mind control technique to get people on Drumeo. It worked.
Aaaaaaahahahaha
Lol my thoughts exactly. I'm hypnotized
Tons of great advice, great advice. Tons of speed. Great tips. Great video. Overall great.
Ok.
Are you sure it isn’t tons of “great” speed?

Thank you so much for this. I've been playing for 3.5 years but never sat myself with a practice pad to just improve my sticking. Those little tips are actually helping my improve a lot in my weaker areas. Thanks again.
honestly one of the best teachers ive come across.
I was just watching something on Drumeo, and thought, didn't I watch a video of that same guy like FOREVER AGO of him on a pad at his day job. You've come a long way, sir. Congrats!
Glad you like it...Keep practicing!
Your techniques and tutorials are awesome.. I have been drumming for the past 27 years and I still enjoy your videos!
Great clip. Very natural, honest teacher. Seven minutes well spent!
Hey Jared! I know you probably hear this often, but I want to thank you... A month ago I started to practice your excercises and finally, I see results! Before I started, I thought it is going to be boring, but right now (and I still don't understand, how this happened) I love it and I enjoying practicing and watching my progess. THANK YOU FOR THIS!
great stuff. always looking for new techniques for drumming
Great explanation of the technique... It's good to see that you take your time explaining all those different stuff that beginners experience, but most people leave out when showing it.
Another great video Jared. You are near-single-handedly teaching me the drums.
“It’s rarely used like this...” death metal drummers: 🤔
Yeah. Try to blastbeat at 220bpm from your wrist and you'll know why this is usefull 😂
You have caught the definitive spirit of finger bounce execution! I first read about this in George Lawrence Stones book written long ago and dedicated to the incomparable talent Joe Morello. Thanks for the insightful lesson. I am grateful.
WOW !!!! I Don't know what to say....I am 67 years old GOAT.... All I could say is I was moved when you said, "I am still practicing, I don't claim to be perfectly trained, We all need to continue practicing. We all are continually learning...... Chose to practice or you are finished"...... The Best Drummers in the world... Tom & George.... they know every thing....but when you ask & they all say, "No I am still practicing"....... The Best was..... "Chose to practice or you are finished"!!!!!..... Well said (Y) &.... Regarding the video... WELL DONE (Y) (Y) (Y) (Y) (Y) ... Keep Posting. You are already Subscribed. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks, Jared! I've been learning to get more finger control in order to speed up my rolls. I have been practicing to strengthen my left hand (my right hand is fine, but with my left hand it feels really awkward) and I was close to quitting. I didn't even know if I was doing it right or if my practice was correct, but after seeing this video I'm really going to dive into it again. Thanks! Keep up the good work!
thanks jared and thanks for all these years, you dont me but ive known you for quite a time now!
2:27 "Stick" it out hahahahahahahahaha
Great exercise man!!! Just getting back into drumming after not playing for 20 years. Of course the left hand got really slow. This is just what I've been looking for to help that speed!! As the previous comment, most instructor don't talk about finger techniques. This is the best!! Thanks so much!!
Fantastic video, I have search for a lot of technique training videos & this one is the clearest & easiest to follow, thank you
i was taught this technique years ago we called it stone killer start with 1 - 10 then 10 hits with each stick back single strokes. its a fantastic technique. I've been drumming for 15yrs but have only just started playing again after 7yrs always good to go back to these exercises.
Awesome.....has really helped me a lot. Thank you very much Sir!
Excellent technical exercises and your speed is awesome thank you for sharing !!
This is a great lesson. I am a big Keith Carlock fan and he discusses finger technique from a traditional grip standpoint. The principal is the same. Jared teaches this technique just as Keith Carlock does. The difference is that Jared stresses the point that patience is required. He is realistic about how long it takes to get this technique. Keith doesn't (I don't think) talk about how long it took (or it takes) to get this to the point he has. Still, two great teachers and one great technique.
Great teaching and advice. Get right to the point, practical and focused, for all drummers, any level. Thank You!
If there's a thing i'm not good in with drumming. It's this. Thanks for the lesson. I'm sure it will help.
Thanks for the free video buddy,Just got a practice pad and i know this will really help me.Thanks again.
Paul
Jesus this has increased my speed and accuracy the most out of any exercise I've done. Thanks!
@SuperDRUMZONE I've been using it for about 1 year and a half, and it gets better and better, I almost couldn't do it at first with my left hand, but now my left hand is much more solid than my right hand with the finger technique. I can pretty much go to 250-260 bpm(16th notes both hands combined)
thanx man. started this now.i can tell its really gonna improve my drumming. thanx for the drum lesson man
Good lesson Jared. I've been working on that for months now and it's just starting to gel now. I have a practice pad on a stand and it's in front of me while I watch TV. Why just watch TV when you can be doing both. Rock on.
Hay Jerrard....always enjoy your vids man, thanks so much for posting them...appreciated !
Great video. Thanks for taking the time to share.
Awesome stuff Jared! Those singles sound amazing at speed. Everytime I try to use a prac pad I get annoyed and frustrated with how weak and consistent my left hand is, but I just gotta stick out out!
First time I saw this technique was from Dave Weckl, tried it a few times, but never had the patience to practice it. I've been at if seriously now for about two weeks after playing drums for roughly 36 years. Absolutely fantastic chop building, confidence enhancing exercises. Glad to see that I have been practicing correctly. Thanks, Jared for sharing this video, been receiving your emails for about two years, and never watched any of your videos, I think I'll start now. :-)
Just like guitar, you put the hard work in and it pays off... eventually!
Thanks Jared, its good to see where hours of practise get you when you need a boost!
You're right... I'm doing that for a week and i have already noticed how better I'm getting at it
SO HELPFUL! I'm doing it right now during halftime of the football game
wonderful flawless technique, Jared! It really accentuates your economical movement relying on finger bounce execution! I'm gonna start practicing this tonight. THX!
@AchillesJack its a hq natural rebound pad, with snare hardware.
@DrThemo Actually yes it helps if you use a thicker stick cause it's like putting more wait for your fingers to push. It will definitely increase your speed. But you can do it with 5A's when you feel comfortable.
Mate your little lessons are perfect. Great inspiration to keep practicing!
heey thank you man! you know, i've been playing drums for almost 7 years and i'd never used this kind of technique! it's difficult but pretty nice
I've been playing the drums for 15 years, I don't mean to blow my own trumpet but I can handle a drum kit quite well. I'm even a singer/drummer albeit perhaps a better singer. That being said I've never relied too much on speed in my style but rather power and accuracy, I had a couple of drum lessons and nobody ever mentioned the finger technique. I love metal and have actually managed to blast beat using my wrists! It's exhausting and strainful and I then realized something was wrong. I've come across many tutorials that don't explain how to do the basics. They all boast about how easy it is and I really struggle with it. Thanks for reminding how much time is required to use fingers accurately and to gain speed. I've been practising for a day almost non-stop, alternatively using my right and left hand - It's something I've always done with paradiddles and stuff like that. Could you however explain whether or not our thumbs should stay parallel to the stick or not? I've noticed your thumb was slightly lifted up but when I do that my thumb seems too stiff and I can't hit it any faster.
LOUDSTEEL it being parralell means thats ur grip.jareds way of gripping is different hence why his thumb is up om the stick.i have the same grip that u use.so ur grip is fine it just takes getting used to
Very good video from one of my favorite drummers
Thank you for this helpful video. God bless you Jared.
Thank you.....one of the best motivation for me.....great
Awesome lesson thanks for sharing it with us Jared
Amazing video thank you. Your video is by far the best explained on this technique and how to do it and build it. I've been trying to figure this out forever. So thank yoy
Brilliant Lesson Jarad
one of the best drumming teachers
Thank you Jared. This video helped a lot.
Thanks Jared. Ive been playing these techniques and man do they work great. Keep up the vids.
I have been playing for 50 years and have very good technique and just started this finger technique. I STRONGLY recommend heavy aluminum sticks and your results will improve by the day. I've almost doubled my speed in 3 days.
Just amazing!
Thank you for your lessons
That's not just about teaching technique, it's convey passion and courage
I'd like to see you on the stage as well as a professional drummer
This is great, thank you! what are some good exercises for independence?
Jared your show is great it's Helpful for Beginners I wanna learn from you.
For strength building with exercises and rudiment practice a nice pair of Vic Firth SD1 sticks are great. Make sure to focus on building good habits when it comes to holding with correct grip (back of palms up), hand position, and keeping even strokes. SD1 sticks are nice and thick; this will ensure you build up strength in your wrist and forearms early on. Stick with Vic Firth as a purchase from them will ensure balanced sticks;this is vital for keeping left and right hands at the same strength
thanks so much for providing a systematic approach. it is easier for me to practice when the exercise is systematic.
I am just starting to play drums and I think this will be very helpful to me. Thanks a lot!
Cool,was really a lot of help cheers Monty from London
Did this about 3 years to 110 bpm each and my sticks are flying...
worth it!
i wander how u hold the stick when u use this finger technic?
Hey Jared! Great little lesson. I thought I'd maybe add a little, a pattern I learned from some drumming buddies in college. It's one that I still practice with today. Using your finger technique, single strokes... the cadence practice pattern is as follows... IE. 8(R) = 8 single right hand strokes; 8(L) = 8 single left hand strokes
8's - 8(R)8(L)
7's - 7(R)7(L)
5's - [RRRLR][LLLRL]
6's - 6(R)6(L)
4's - 4(R)4(L)
3's - 3(R)3(L)
2's - [2(R)2(L)] X 2
1's - [RLRLRLRL]
1's DOUBLE TIME [RLRLRLRL(R)^]
I have been looking for a good finger technique video to start practicing this helped alot thanks
@iSquishMoths Yes and no, it'll help because developing those reflexes in your fingers is good for doubles, but what you need to is study the 'bounce snap' technique. Hope that helps x
My left hand was not active and dead but these practice tech helped me a lot, Thnx so much
Your an awesome teacher.
Hey jared iv got two questions I was hoping you could answer one is what size sticks do you use and two when is the next live show thanks Your videos are helping me progress as a drummer thanks for all your effort
thanx man. look forward to trying this technique. just got a practice pad so i can practice all the time. I work in a restaraunt and find myself practicing with knives at work! hahaha. this seems to work well on ride cymbals and hihats and such too. good stuff!
thanks Jared this has helped me so much
Really nice explications, nice video.
Excellent lesson, I take it we are to do this using the French grip, one question I have is what stand are you using for that pad
Very helpful. Thanks Jared.
You explain that so much better than my drum teacher. I'll have to try your way.
hey dude, liked this exercise a lot!! i have trouble with my left hand, (thumb) after a car accident, and have been looking for a way to build this technique in to a routine as such. i think with practice etc this will be great for me, only found this by accident as well, lol!! have a good day dude, and keep it up!!
Didnt work on my trainers but its fantastic when you get it!! Thanks to Jarad Falk.
It's beginning to work for on my right hand! I give it a little squeeze at the second knuckle.
Thanks Jared.. nice lesson.... do you hold the stick loose.? this would make it bounce.
I am working on a pillow trying to get the feel of this technic.
thanx for the video. drummers say it takes a really long time to build that sort of speed and endurance. how long did it take you and what was your routine like?
This was very helpful and well get me to that next level. Who did you say were the best drummers out there?
Dude, you have got some crazy awesome concentration XD
Cheers.i have learnt a lot from your videos.
Fantastic.your videos were very educative and interesting.
Thanks, Jared. I'll start practising this right away :D By the way, your expression while playing is just priceless xD Cheers!
thanks for the tips, it is helpful for a beginner !
Your an awesome teacher
Thanks for attempting to show others what you know. I cannot believe some of the offensive childlike comments below. Don't be discouraged I appreciate your efforts as do others serious about learning.
THANKS FOR SHARING!
Finally starting to get the hang of this!
Any tips on how to practice the transition between doubles using two wrist movements and doubles using fingers? It's not smooth at all when I do it...
This was a very good teaching movie, it was a lot of help to me, thank you very much! :)
this is AWSOME thanks jared!
Brilliant advice.
I like the exercises, it'll make practicing fingers a lot more entertaining!
is it fine to practice it with palms down? appose to up?
Thank you so much for your time you give us with your knowledge!! Its a huge help!! Keep kickn' it up!! DaveBubba
Nice work. Thank you man.
This is very helpful. Thank you.
