this is a cool idea to extrapolate to paraddidles in quintuplets in the same vein!

also

accent the first two hits of each paradiddle on a different cymbal with the kick!! and the double beats on either a tom or snare!!!! Very Akira Jimbo!

It's cool to practice with 8th notes on kick and hatfoot.

Sounds CRAZY around the kit. Try alternating between floor tom with right hand (if right handed) and hi tom with left hand on snare. Then try moving both hands having the accents fall on different drums and/or closed hat.
Crazy!!
