Double Bass Drumming Techniques: Heel-Up, Swivel & Ankle Motion

Heel-Up vs Ankle Motion Techniques

For moderate speeds (up to 140 BPM), leg power in heel-up position provides heavy punch. For high speeds (160+ BPM), transition to light **Ankle Motion** or **Swivel Technique** to conserve energy.

Double Pedal Tension & Spring Setup

Adjust beater angle (around 45 degrees) and spring tension medium-tight for instant rebound back to your foot.
