Fast Rolls and Dirty Eights

This technique is designed for anyone who wants to learn the effortless fast roll. Hold on to your sticks with all fingers, lock your wrists, rotate from the elbows, and your hands move straight up and down. Eight on a hand from the elbow, hitting two notes instead of one is what I call "Dirty Eights". Fast Rolls are the same thing as Dirty Eights just add the other hand. The roll pattern I demonstrate is in five/ four it's two tap five rolls and a tap drag. (rlrlr, lrlrl, rlr/ lrlrl, rlrlr, lrl) Enjoy!
