What is a double drag tap?
The Double Drag Tap adds an extra drag to create a denser pattern. The basic structure is:
- Two drags followed by a tap: llRllRL or rrLrrLR
- Accent on tap at the end of each triplet
- Creates a rolling sequence with a distinct triplet feel
Precision in grace note control is what can make or break this rudiment. Start slow and focus on:
- Clean, quick grace notes
- Strong accents on the taps
- Even spacing between drags
- Smooth flow to the tap
