Description

A cramp roll that starts with a frap instead of a plain step. Riff the right foot (brush, then heel dig) and step onto it, step onto the left, then drop the right heel and the left heel. Six sounds rolling out in place.

Practice Tips

  • If the brush and the dig blur together, press harder into the brush and bring the foot toward the floor at a steeper angle so the two sounds separate.
  • Keep all six sounds even - the frap tends to rush into the first step.
