[LONG POST] Hey guys, I’m new to the forum and I hope some of you can give me feedback on my picking technique.
This is my tremolo picking/1 string picking
other perspective: (unfortunately bad quality)
My picking motion looks like ellbow, but I can get to almost the same speed when I try to only move my wrist. I am pretty happy with it and I think the only thing I need to speed it up is more practice, but maybe you still got some tips for me.
This is me playing a scale with string changes after up- and downstrokes:
Scale I put the links in the comments becuase I can only put two links in a post.
This is why I originally made this post. I noticed that I am hitting the string that’s in the way. I never thought about Pickslanting and I don’t think I’m doing it since I’m trapped sometimes, but I just glide over the string. I don’t notice this when playing, only when watching the slomo. But is this bad? Is it slowing me down? I played some DWPS patterns (6 notes per string, starting on a downstroke) with my technique and with DPWS and didn’t really feel a difference. Maybe someone can tell me what I’m actually doing. Stringhopping? some type of pickslanting? Perhaps crosspicking but it’s too flat?
And these are some picked Arpeggios:

I am pretty sure that I am stringhopping here? Do you have any tips to improve/use another technique?
One last thing. In this clip I am also playing 16th notes (dont mind the 32 pulloff) but I am not hitting the strings. Why?

Thanks so much for reading this and if you want any other perspective/picking/pattern/scale I can do upload that too.
