"PETER VAN DYCK: What we're going to do is we're going to play the hi-hat relaxed at a rather slow tempo and then play it twice as fast as follows. Notice I don't lift my foot all the way up off the hi-hat at any time nor does the hi-hat need to reach its highest point. I always have tension on it. I'll do the demonstration warm-up one more time."
