I like flams. As much i hated in past. Flams are good in warm-up as they are in execution. Don’t abuse, as usual, ‘cos too much notes are only too much notes and, as great musicians say, “less is better”. But when you’re practicing sometimes “much is better”. I wrote down some basics exercises i like to play on practice pad as well on the snare: rudiments full of flams. Not so hard, just a warm up.

Following the “you can practice (almost) everywhere” rule, i’ve found a nice place in a Rome’s park and start practicing for a while. Great with wind blowing, birds singing, child playing and, well, cars and motorbikes running on the road not so far.
