George once told me that all rudiments are a combination of strokes:

Full-Stroke     Stick starts high and ends high after contacting the drum.  down-stroke   The stick starts high and ends low after contacting the drum.    tap   The stick starts low and ends low after contacting the drum.    up-stroke    The stick starts low and ends high after contacting the drum.
