    Help on Trills and Jackhammers

    Okay, so I've been getting a lot better at FFR lately, I've switched to spread, started screenshrinking, and am getting around 200 combos on songs like Delirium and CIA Rave. I think I would keep getting better at these kind of songs and eventually get really good, but I can't move my fingers fast enough in some songs. Trills and Jackhammers are the hardest thing. For instance, I can FC the stream part of Stalled Out and Sushi Bars! easily but I can't always get the jackhammers. The same for trills in other songs. Can you please give me hints on how to practice moving my hands faster, or songs that will help me improve. Oh and btw I can move my right hand faster then my left and that's a problem too.

    lol. Trills and jacks have nothing to do with each other.

    For jacks, hit early.

    For trills, um...practice a lot.

      Basically I just mean fast tapping. Thanks I'll hit a little early next time on jacks.

        I would say "practice a lot" to anything that's keeping you from getting better, though you are on the right track: screenshrinking, etc. Jacks give me hell, always. I used to not be able to do them at all, and I still can't do more than about 5 16ths at 150-170 BPM, but I will say that if you play songs that have jacks in them, eventually you will improve.

          I'm a one hander so I never had any problems with jacks.
          After a certain speed trills force me to index.
          Yes, I'm a switcher.
