So, DrumSkull, just to be clear, you're doing the "bu-bum, bu-bum, bu-bum, bu-bum" pattern on the double-kicks?

Your right foot takes the up-beats and left, the downs?

OK. If this is true, try this:

For the left foot only, lower foot on footboard to the bottom third of the footplate.

Execute a double stroke, starting on the downbeat, with your left-foot, while doing your normal shuffle and as you described.

Listen to this (It starts out normal and then, in the second-half, I do the triplet):
