119 bars, 7:19, at 65 BPM: slow enough that every note is exposed. Crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot and nothing else.
80 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how much of it falls off the beat.
ride through bars 1-18, silence through bars 19-20, hi-hat through bars 21-22, snare through bars 23-54, ride through bars 55-70 and hi-hat through bars 71-73, and 3 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 23-25, 27-37 and 39-54, and 2 more places -- 49.1% of every bar the kit plays. Learn that one and most of the song is already under your hands.

It cuts the song into 25 exercises -- the grooves, the fills, and the joins between sections, which is where players actually come off -- and puts them in the order a teacher would. Each one opens on a reduction you can already play and adds the notes back a rung at a time, with a tempo to reach and a gate to pass before the next.
65 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in thirty-second notes. Slow enough to hear every mistake, which is why the room lets you sit at the written tempo rather than under it.
80 out of 100. Hard, and what makes it hard is how much of it falls off the beat. The beat itself is 73 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
119 bars, about 7:19 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 25 exercises over 9 sittings, about 24 minutes each.
crash, ride, hi-hat, snare, high tom, mid tom, floor tom, kick and hi-hat foot. That is most of a full kit; the part moves around it rather than sitting in one place.
