Publish the Obsidian vault's Knowledge folder as /knowledge (881 notes, 67 folders), with a Knowledge item in the nav and footer. - scripts/import_knowledge.py regenerates data/knowledge from the vault: slugged paths, folder notes as index pages, wikilinks resolved to site links (or plain text), callouts, highlights, and Dataview tables rendered statically. Personal notes are withheld via an exclusion list plus a privacy guard. - tuftecms/core/knowledge.py builds a concept index from note titles and aliases. First mentions on ordinary pages link to their Knowledge note (capped, never in headings, code, links, or sidenotes); Knowledge pages list related notes and where they're mentioned across the site; other pages get a Related Knowledge block. - Knowledge URLs join sitemap.xml (so the sweep test covers them), never displace existing legacy slugs, list alphabetically, and mermaid diagrams render client-side only on pages that have them.

## The Rudiment
|
|
|
|
The eleven stroke roll adds another diddle to the family, five double strokes rolling into a single accented tap. At this length the roll begins to feel genuinely sustained, spanning enough of the measure that the ear reads it as a true roll rather than a quick punctuation, yet it still resolves crisply onto its accent. It is a favorite for longer rudimental phrases and for filling more of a beat than the nine stroke roll comfortably covers.

|
## Sticking
|
|
|
|
The standard sticking is five doubles plus a terminating accent — eleven strokes: **RRLL RRLL RR L**, accent on the final note, then reversed as **LLRR LLRR LL R**. The ten rolled notes are played as even doubles, closed or open, leading to the accented eleventh stroke on the beat. Ending on the opposite hand from where it began, the lead hand alternates as the roll repeats.
|

|
## How to Play
|
|
|
|
The longer the roll, the more evenness matters — keep all five diddles low, matched, and consistent in spacing so the sustain does not sag in the middle, then drive the eleventh stroke for the accent. Practice it open and slow to guarantee clean second strokes before closing it into a smooth roll. As with all measured rolls, relaxation through the hands keeps the diddles from choking as the count grows.

## In Practice
|
|
|
|
The eleven stroke roll shows up in rudimental solos, marching literature, and orchestral passages calling for a longer measured roll. It follows the [Nine Stroke Roll](/knowledge/music/drum-rudiments/nine-stroke-roll) and [Ten Stroke Roll](/knowledge/music/drum-rudiments/ten-stroke-roll) and leads toward the [Thirteen Stroke Roll](/knowledge/music/drum-rudiments/thirteen-stroke-roll) as diddles accumulate.
