→ Nail onehanded 16ths, openhat barks, and left foot independence in 9 lessons. Download my FREE pdf guide, “Your 3 Biggest Hihat Problems, SOLVED” ✔ https://thenonglamorousdrummer.myk...

This is an alternate way of playing the hihat that you may or may not have ever tried before. Some of you may even play this way already, or this could be a totally foreign concept. Today we’re talking about a method that keeps your hands from crossing, and we’ll discuss why it works so well. We’ll finish, though, by discussing an instance where you actually might want to cross your hands. If you’ve ever felt uncomfortable with your hihat playing, today’s lesson could very well solve the issue for you. Whether your hands are tangling up, sticks are clicking, or you’re just never comfortable when playing hihat patterns, this lesson is for you! As drummers we never want to skim over the topic of ergonomics and placement. Sometimes sliding your hihat a few inches can help a TON. So can adjusting your hands just a tad. This is interesting stuff, so let’s get going!
