“ANCIENT GRIP”
An obscure technique good for volume and little else, this grip hasn't been seen much since the war — Civil War, that is. With the thumb wrapped under the stick, the pinkie acts as the “fulcrum” and the resulting stroke relies almost entirely on wrist action, with things like rebound and dynamics relegated to distant afterthoughts.
