In 2002 I dropped the very first video of how Open/Close (Push/Pull) technique could be synchronized in BOTH hands at the same time to create single stroke rolls - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJL8wZCky7Q&t=978s. Upon seeing this video, Ed Shaughnessy said "You've developed an historically important form of technique that ranks with the Moeller System!" His endorsement led to an invitation to be a clinician, along with Joe Morello and Jim Chapin, for a special hand technique clinic series at PASIC 2003 - https://www.gk-music.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Chapin-Morello-Knudtson.pdf. After my presentation Joe said "I'm SO glad you did this! Billy Gladstone was messing around with this when I was studying with him, but he never documented it....I think you took it further than he did!" Go to GK-Music.com for Zoom lessons and method books by Gordy Knudtson, drummer for The Steve Miller Band.
