Jammin_n_Flammin Registered: 07/08/08 Loc: Madison, Alabama	I have a way that I do this but I was just wondering how you guys do it here. That is, having a cool transition flip/spin to go from playing in traditional to playing in matched and vice versa that is easy to do, fast, efficient and looks good. I tryed to search for this but I didn't know what to call it so I'm posting it here and if it is already posted then sorry. Thanks.

PenniesForSale Registered: 06/11/08 Loc: Nevada	Starting from matched, I move my first finger so that the stick is in between the first and second. Then I turn my wrist counter-clockwise until it's in the traditional position, move the thumb under the stick, and shift my second finger back over to form a traditional grip. Going from traditional to matched I do the reverse. _________________________ Ed W. Clark High School, Las Vegas, NV 2007-08: Bass 1 2008: Snare/pit (band not fielding battery)

thedude Registered: 05/13/08 Loc: Hawaii, US	Do this spin backwards, but when it's right about to go back into the original traditional grip, let the stick transfer from in between your ring and middle fingers to in between your middle and index fingers. When the spin is done, you should be back in traditional grip except the butt is facing out instead of the bead. Then, do a backstick into matched. _________________________ Merry Christmas!

Robotman8591 Registered: 01/10/08 Loc: Melbourne, Florida	Dude If you really want some flair Watch some videos and invent your own way doing it. It'll Be a lot more satisfying and cool once you come up with something that's yours. I'm thinking the key to what you want is somewhere in your mind. Just got to be creative a bit. =] But videos definitely help. _________________________ You may think that people choose to become drummers. They don’t. You may think drumming is a musical preference. It isn’t. Drumming chooses its victims. There is growing evidence that drumming may be genetic in origin, like some illnesses, though it’s certainly unfair to compare drumming to something like schizophrenia. Schizophrenics don’t have to tap on everything.
