How to Find the Fulcrum Point on Your Drumsticks
The first step when you start to learn drums is to find the fulcrum point on your drumstick. This is vital if you want to get the most out of your drum set, no matter which grip you decide to use.
The correct fulcrum point will help improve your drumming a lot. It makes it easier for you to navigate the drum set and to swing your drumstick in a controlled way.
The fulcrum point is the point where the drumsticks should rest in your fingers. It is normally about 1/3 down the drumstick’s length. The correct fulcrum point is the point where the weight of the drumstick is most balanced and where you will get the most rebound efficiency.
