This is dedication. She’s spent a lot of time practicing and fine tuning her insane skills and it’s inspiring.

[fiddlybarkparka]

Sarah is awesome, I will watch any video she is in. Incredible speed and control on that foot!

[jasonenz]

Wow! I was happy getting fast doubles for pop punk stuff. Thanks for the inspiration to get my foot faster!!!
❤️

I've always LOVED a good ringy snare tone, not sure why everyone hates on it so much (ya ya... St. Anger... I know, it doesn't bother me.). Crazy foot grooves BTW...

[AlfredoZauberer]

Amazing! Very Good!
I've seen a magnetic foot pedal...that reacts to magnets...with the magnet itself, you can customize how the pedal rebounds!
If I were a drummer, I'd want to try it, I think once you're "attuned" to it, there is NO foot pedal that reacts faster!

[zacdrake]

She is truly amazing! She IS making the rounds. I first saw her in a duet with Rob Brown. But she's got that St Anger snare going on! Back it down a quarter turn or throw a moongel on it, Please!

[jakegreene]

5:20 how do you do a double bass fill that fast on a single foot?!?!?!?!?!?!

[aincatoni]

I'm sorry but I feel cheated, I expected to see a very clean and powerful technique, but the reality is different, she lose many hits and others sound very messy :(

[flstudiocodemastersejayrag]

What happened to Sarah🇮🇳🍛Thawer's snare drum. It sounds like a tin snare drum🤷🏼‍♂️, peace✌🏼 from🇩🇪.

[filmkv]

Does she know about click? Its weird lesson. Does not look proffesional at all. It looks like practice session. Good skills though.

[andreasbreitwieser]

she is good, no doubt, it is 2018, do we need that kind of pingidengalang-Snaresound like beginn of the its so penetrant, nobody out there likes its everybodys personal taste, but come let's make it deep and fat... !! ;-)

[bluesteel]

She’s good but a little sloppy. Work on consistency. Over all I give a 6 out of 10. Good job👍👍👍
