I recently had to coach a drummer who was learning some rudiments like the rough half-drag and nine-stroke roll. Rudiments are really cool -- in fact I think anything is really cool that bumps up one's technique. But here's a site that not only does the rudiments on the snare but also in the context of a beat and a fill...nice applications!

On this page you can access all of the 40 rudiments offered, plus (scrolling down) there is a good description of each. Many, many thanks to Lionel Duperron for playing!

Drum rudiments has been the foundation of my learning experience due to it helping me improve my technique, speed, and hand control. Even though there are times that I won't be able to get a hold of my drum kit or my practice pad at home, due to me being out of the city, I always carry my drum sticks and a brass rod to improve my technique on the go.
