Between lessons at Revival drum shop in Portland, OR.. thought it would be fun to try and keep a single stroke roll going for 5 minutes straight… made it 2:20 before my cymbal stand quit the band.


In this video, I push my hands, focus, and control through one of the most essential drum rudiments — the single stroke roll. It’s a great exercise for speed, consistency, and endurance, whether you’re a beginner or an advanced drummer.


⚠️ Sorry for the sound clipping in parts of the video — still wanted to share the full roll!


If you’re looking to improve your stick control, technique, and stamina, try this challenge yourself — and see if your setup survives longer than mine!
