Air Drumming! And Tapping!
Seriously, it's mental practice when you're away from the kit. There was a thread not too long ago about having 'off days', if that's what you're referring to.

Rudiments?
Ya, i actually think that hellsbells is right here, i sort of sloed down for a while, and the only thing i can think of that i stopped doing was air drumming
well, i play n play but just find out u loosin touch or lemme say stagnant- as in u r in the same position, same beat no improveent sort of
I need HELP!
i play anything....beatin on a table with sticks to messin around with pens....
Here's one thing that helps me out: I keep a practice pad and a set of sticks sitting in the middle of my coffee table at all times. I play along to the radio(change the station every once in a while so you are'nt listening/playing the same thing all the time), tv commercials, movie credits, the opening songs on tv shows(yeah, I can play the intros to almost the entire Adult Swim lineup ), or even just the cars I hear boomin' their stereos down the street. Because of this, I don't find myself in a rut anymore as I always have new ideas every day. Try it, and see where your at in a month. It WILL make a difference.

i do all this u talking about that somepeople think i gone mad sometimes- air drumming. People say i am drumming very well, but i know my potentials and i think i am not using it to the best i can.
ye jam man if so cut it down to one other person an feed off each other
if your that good at drummin shouldn't be a problem cut the bass man out
an try a soloist/lead man work like contemporary jazz/blues follow him then have him follow you n jus jam keep it fresh n that ill keep u on ur toes
