148 bars at 170 BPM -- fast, and 3:29 of it without a break -- on hi-hat, snare, kick and hi-hat foot.
56 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet.
hi-hat through bars 1-36, snare through bars 37-44, hi-hat through bars 45-76, snare through bars 77-84, kick and crashes through bars 85-92 and hi-hat through bars 93-108, and 2 more changes after that.
The beat the song is built on is one bar, played through bars 1-28 and 53-68 -- 29.7% of every bar the kit plays. That is the spine of it; everything else is what happens around it.

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.
170 BPM, in 4/4, with the time kept in sixteenth notes. At that speed the sixteenth notes are the whole difficulty, so the room will take it down to a quarter of it and climb back.
56 out of 100, a step up from a first song, and the work is in the independence between the hands and the feet. The beat itself is 47 out of 100; the rest of the number is everything around it.
148 bars, about 3:29 at the written tempo. The course breaks it into 25 exercises over 6 sittings, about 26 minutes each.
hi-hat, snare, kick and hi-hat foot. Nothing in the part asks for anything else.
