Phil Rosato demonstrates the push-pull technique on a Remo Silent Stroke head.

This was absolutely, without a doubt, the best explanation and demonstration of this technique I’ve ever seen!! Thank you!

[Zionist_Eternal]

Been doing most of this for 40+ years. But you've given me a nudge over the precipice. Many thanks.

That right hand French grip on both hands explains Billy Cobham’s blazing speed. His strength helped too

I love when he says " god this feels good" a man that loves his craft

[kennethschweighardt]

Buddy called the left hand movement “stirring the soup”!
🤘😎🥁👍

[johnselig]

That was a great explanation! You make it look so smooth and easy...Thanks from Drummer in Vegas!

[jaybefaulky]

dude this is THE BEST example of this i have seen!! *in my words i would say 'the movement focuses on the second hit, the hand feel is ONE motion allowing a looseness to release the first hit (almost like an accident), it is the first hit which is the finesses element and is treated as a "kinetic energy freeby" but the motion is one, and the resolution is the second hit*

Thanks so much for sharing!

Happy Drumming!!!

Looks like it took 3 years for this to get around to me. I watched the instruction with intense concentration and then the last 15 seconds made my head explode. 🤯. Thanks for this, and thanks for the traditional grip application.

Excellent video. Your verbal skills are awsum.

[Paulswindellsdrummer]

I really enjoyed this explanation! Well done 👍

[sticktrik]

Phil..I’m from Toronto & I saw you playing this way in a drum clinic for Long & Mcquade. You were young! You were heavily influenced by B.R. All I remember is that you had jaw dropping speed and technique!!
That was circa 1982-1983!!!

[jbriggs]

Very well done, master of teaching drums

[Sauron]

That is AWESOME!! Unfortunately for me I have a severely damaged right wrist that’s had 9 very intrusive, bone crunching operations on. The initial injury happened back in 1985 when I was 15 years old, I’d only started playing just before it happened. Anyway played in bands etc for years but I could never get these types of techniques down due to the restrictions that my injury and subsequent surgeries had put on me … All the same I love watching these vids with delightful technique being displayed 👊🏻👊🏻

[williamanthony]

HEH, HEH, HEH FREAKING AWESOME. THAT'S CALLED STICK CONTROL MARVELOUS AND THANSK
