I have been practicing single paradiddles and also the switching from doubles to singles. It is quite tough as it requires a lot of wrist work and also sometimes you need to rely on the bounce back of the drumsticks. To say what I am currently good at are: I am capable of playing paradiddles at 60 bpm and switching from doubles to singles and back as well. However to improve for the next time I have to learn how to switch from doubles to paradiddle. Furthermore I have been also practicing songs such as Summer of '69 (Bryan Adams) and Sweet Child O' Mine (Guns & Roses) and also many more which I cannot list as there are many of them. I will try to upload films of me playing them soon.
I know (from experience) how difficult some of these skills are. What is good is that you are setting yourself goals, you are being reflective about your progress and you are posting it on your blog. Keep it up, you'll get there!
