Casey Claw? Fan boys much! I'm just joshing around. I like Casey as much as the rest of you. What do you mean he choked it up in the I&E though, Kruse?

It is hard as hell to do sometimes but once you get the hang of it, it looks and sound SO sweet! That's one of the main reasons their drum feature was so hot in Mercury

the vid is nuts

I love the Claw! http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8040537896011944569&q=Hulka+Helicopter&ei=iuxFSPLlMZPgrgLp--mQDA

Definitely a sight to behold!

I've been a big fan of Cavies 95 since I used to come on here all the time back when I was in high school...

So to watch the video, it felt great to see him to do it.

Thanks again, Hulka, for being such a great sport here on drumlines.org

Maybe I'll stick around on here a bit longer than before lol

Such a cool trick. I learned it earlier today im still trying to learn the helicopter.

This thing is killing my wrists! anyone else feeling slight wrist pain after traing to learn this? or am i doing it wrong?

i cant figure out how to do the claw or the helicopter. are there any videos explaining either or can anyone explain them on here. Also this is kind of related but help/vids/explinations for 3 way backsticking?

Thanks

Look everywhere, Im sure you can find the three way backsticking. Well, try youtube, Bunch of video's breaking it down.

As for the claw, theres nothing really more to be explained. Just take your stick, grip it like a baseball bat instead of a drumstick, and point the bead out away from you. Then just turn your wrist, much in the same way your wrist turns when you play traditional.

Keep playing with it, make sure you do it on a surface that dosn't catch either. I can't do it on a slimpad, to much drag. I don't know about a laminate. The best bet would probably just be screw with the trick a little more at school.
