hammer js dragstart not firing

I have this super simple hammer.js example which works with the 'tap' event but not with 'dragstart'. I cant seem to figure out why.

<div id="test_el" draggable="true">HIT ME</div>

-

var element = document.getElementById('test_el');
var hammertime = Hammer(element).on("dragstart", function(event) {
    alert('hello!');
});

if the event is changed to tap, it works. But hammer lists dragstart as an event here. https://github.com/hammerjs/hammer.js/wiki/Getting-Started#gesture-events

Any ideas why this would not work?

If you are using hammerjs v2 (the new one) drag support has been dropped.

The available events are the following:

Pan
Pinch
Press
Rotate
Swipe
Tap

and the new documentation is here: http://hammerjs.github.io/getting-started/
