Re: "there are precisely two ways to [mix escapes]"

@Troy In this recent thread, you posted this comment:

@Troy

However: if […] then what you are really asking about is mixing both escapes. There are precisely two ways to do this: double escape motion, or two-way pickslanting

I am really interested in that and have these follow up questions, please:

1. Are there only two ways if your base motion is DSX? If yes, what options does one have for USX?
2. I remember a video of yours saying that to get over the string change that your base motion doesn’t facilitate, some players throw a helper motion, some with the elbow and others with the shoulder. In which category of the two that you mentioned do these fall?
3. I thought you had moved away from the two-way pick slanting framing, because the slant of the pick was a result of the motions used, not the root cause of the movement. Are you using the framing again, then? If so, what are the reasons that led you do bring it back?

I think that he is saying that you can always escape on both sides with DBX (but it is slow).

Or, you can sometimes escape on the trapped stroke in either USX or DSX using whatever he calls that mojo (I forget that term, it’s something like “helper motion,” perhaps).
