I came across another one of Alex Hutchings’ videos on economy picking. This time I noticed that he seems to have a DSX motion. He also seems to keep that motion the same when he’s using economy picking or sweeping to ascend. I haven’t seen this too much before, and I have always assumed that most players use a USX setup to ascend. Maybe I’m wrong about his motions.
What do you all think? Is he using a DSX to ascend?

Looks like down stroke escape and a hammer? For the ascend.
I can’t slow it down. From what I see his pick is kept in a dsx position without moving so there are some hammer to make it work? As that’s a 3nps run right?
Maybe down up hammer
Index down
Middle up
Pinky hammer
So it’s full dsx with the hammer at the end?
Do you think he is using a legato escape technique, like Yngwie does?
The pull off? That he does?
yes, you said downstroke escape and a hammer. I’m guessing you mean he’s using a hammer like an escape?
