So… Looking for some feedback here. I have been trying for 10+ years to work on my dsx but it always reverts back to a motion that is too vertical on the upstroke. I can do a really fast tremolo (200 bpm+) But it is never applicable to real lines. It seems like my bad motions are too ‘burned in’ too replace. I dunno, would appreciate if someone has some feedback.

Oh. I set it to private. Now it should work

It looks like primarily elbow motion to me, with a little wrist help. It kind of looks like you are trying the change the “natural” trajectory of elbow motion (DSX) with a wrist motion, making the sum more vertical/trapped. The pick appears to follow a path like this: (.
If you feel that you always revert to the same motions, why not try something completely different? Different anchor point, different pick, different grip, just to feed your nervous system new sensations. Perhaps you’ll find something useful!
Yes! That path very much look like that: (. I have tried all sorts of combinations, different pick grips, anchor points etc. Always end up with similar results. When i started playing i always rested my thumb on the strings, maybe that what makes me want to push the pick “into” the guitar.
How is the difference in feel between elbow and wrist? When troy is playing wrist motion in the “starting with speed” video for example his elbow is moving…
