I hate them, they suck. Watching Eze when he streamed was like the most fascinating thing in the universe cause they sucked that much to me.

Jacks are probably my worst aspect, I need to work on stuff like maid of fire, grind em out. I really enjoy a nice minijack though, getting better at them.. Things like big blue or black key etude in FFR

This might be deep, but are trills technically jacks, in a way? I mean, if you are doing a trill that uses both hands, you are essentially just doing a jack on each hand..

That being said, my right handed jacking is better, probably cause I play guitar and jacks are more similar to strumming than they are to fingering notes... Im weird, been working hard on right hand speed.. I can trill blooddrunk, the first part, at like 1.4x rate (the left hand one hand trills) but I can barely trill the right handed ones at 1x :/

Naw, trills and jacks are pretty different in the way they feel. A long 32nd trill would feel much different than one long 16th jack of either arrow, and then even more different if was a long jump jack. I see what you're saying, but the execution is just so so different.

well trills literally are just 2 offset jacks on each hand

OMG can't forget about trills.

there's a lot of good that comes out of practicing trills

helps a FUCK TON with jumpstream and handstream

definitely helps with jacks imo

just sayin, i feel like i could never get a grip on jumpstream until i practiced the fuck out of one-handed trills

wow trills are mad cool

yo, same. i think this applies to right handed drummers too, if you lead with your right hand. and i get the feeling a lot of players have a dominant jackhammer hand, and it seems like its usually the right hand. or might be my imagination. maybe i just played a lot of zaghurim files and he definitely seemed kind of right-hand dominant, if you look at jai envie de plaiser x2 and st. scarhand

Back in high school I knew my right hand was way better at jack hammers so I would practice left hand jacks away from the comp on my lap. Pretty nerdy, but hey both hands are pretty damn even now (right hand still a little dominant when things get really fast)
