It's quick but totally doable with one foot (they're only 8th notes).

Don't think about them as being three notes, but instead think of them filling in all the space between the snare hits.

So start with the hi/hat snare:

imo, this requires you to play "heel-up" as opposed to "heel-down" in regards to the bass pedal. Basically, hitting the pedal with the ball of your foot/front half of your foot while your heel is raised off the base of the pedal. The force should be coming less from your ankle and more from your calf and leg muscles. I think it also helps to never actually fully take your foot off the pedal, making the up-and-down motion of your leg strong, but quick and efficient. Again, this is just imo.

Anyone else able to successfully and consistently achieve the equivalent of a double-bounce with the bass pedal using the slide technique? I'm having trouble with that, because it seems some patterns require the slide...or a double pedal XD

Play Heel up.

By Heel up I mean keep yoru heel off the ground, use y our muscles to move yoru toes forward, you'll realize it works alot faster and you're more quicker.

For super fast doubles, do a heel-toe.

That's where you use your h eel to play a note and follow through and use your toe to play another.

I like to switch between heel up and heel down based on how tired my ankles/calves are.

whats this heel-toe technique, I saw someone explain it earlier but I'm not sure what he meant exactly.

Just put your heel on the tip of the pedal and press it while sliding your foot down to hit the next note with your toe? I'm lost lol.
