This site is dedicated to provide good examples of the 40 official drum rudiments. More specifically, there is one page for each rudiment and each page is a link target from the Rude drum training app.
As you have reached this page, you probably got here through some other link or search engine and not from the Rude app. That is OK, please feel welcome to browse and use the site freely (of course, as most of the content is kindly provided by others anyway). If you find something strange, wrong or have suggestions on improvements, additional info or useful links, just send me a mail on software (at) skrivarna.com. I really appreciate it!
For more information on the Rude drum training app, please visit the Android market or Skrivarna. For links to the individual rudiment pages, see the side bar to the right.

28 - Swiss army triplet
A right hand flam followed by a right tap and a left tap, or (using a left hand lead) a left hand flam followed by a left tap and a right tap. It is often used in the place of a flam accent, since repeated flam accents will have three taps on the same hand in a row, where repeated swiss army triplets only involve two taps on the same hand.
