  • Watch 1:30-7:11​​
  • You don’t need to roll as fast as him but listen to his quality! Watch his use of arm on rolls.
  • Remember: the softer you roll, the more notes in each buzz and the slower the hand speed.

  • Listen to his roll quality. Watch his heights and zones. Sometimes his heights are a bit higher than I go but it's not very often and many times, it's marked very strong in the music.
