Developing Hi Hat Splash Technique

Here is a video lesson about developing Hi Hat splash pedal technique.
After performing a short solo demonstrating several types of splash patterns I explain the ways in which I teach this technique. For demonstration material I am using my book Advanced Coordination for Drum Set and Hand Percussion. If you are interested in a copy you can purchase it from me at [email protected]

The equipment I am using for this video consists of: Doc Sweeney Stave Drums in African Olive wood 20"x 16" Bass Drum Toms: 10"x 8", 12"x 8", 14"x 14 floor tom.
