Timpani Grips: The German Grip
How to form a German grip:
1. Palms are parallel to the floor.
2. Motion of this grip is controlled from the wrists with little help from the middle fingers and ring fingers.
3. Strokes should feel similar to waving goodbye or bouncing a basketball.
4. This grip is most like the match grip for snare drum.
