 Re: Can oboe players double tongue?

Just a different thought...I find (for me!) that doing 'tah kah tah' or something like that 'chokes' up the tounge when I go at fast speeds, which defies the whole point of doing that way for me. My teacher advocates doing 'dah gah dah' because this requires much less muscular effort, and will allow you to bring the double-tounge up to high speeds.

I would practice it really slowly, and just do it as legato as you possibly can, with absolutely no break in between the notes until you can do it continuously slowly. As 'someone' said, practicing on the second syllable only is a really good exercise too. I agree with everything someone said except for the syllables used.
