This is a jazz drum lesson where I discuss the main exercises that helped me develop 'rolling triplets' a la Elvin Jones (drummer for John Coltrane, McCoy Tyner). I did not create these exercises. I use a similar practice concept as my Tony Williams video:

These exercises are also good for developing swing coordination in general, although they deal mostly in triplets rather than 8th-note comping.
Interested in playing faster in general? Check out my video on the traditional grip push-pull technique here, as well as its application to single stroke rolls:
