Five Stroke Roll Triplet
What is a Five Stroke Roll (Triplet)?
The Five Stroke Roll can also be played as triplets. The sticking pattern in this case is RLLRR LRRLL. The way to master this rudiment is by developing the proper triplet timing and flow. Start slow and focus on:
- Even triplet spacing throughout
- Smooth transitions between the two triplet groups
- Accents on the first note of each triplet
- Maintaining the triplet feel at various tempos
