First inversion paradiddles around the drums

Updating a very crummy looking page I wrote in 2012— some calisthenic patterns moving the highly hip and useful RLLR-LRRL paradiddle inversion around the drums. 

Drill them blazing fast, and also for control and accuracy at moderate tempos. Don’t have a big hole where you sound bad with these because the tempo isn’t fast enough. As it says, practice ending the patterns with a bass drum on the last 16th note in the measure, plus a cymbal/bass drum.
