This is just the second exercise from a book of Paradiddle-based exercises I’ve been working on. These things are simple to understand but difficult to play.

With practice, you’ll gain the ability to create some really cool patterns with the unique combinations of accents and stickings.

The concept is similar to the first exercise. Play an accent on the second single of the paradiddle sticking (RLRR LRLL) and then shift the whole pattern back one 16th note to change the phrasing. Switch to left hand lead on the repeat.

Combine this with the first exercise to create longer patterns.
