I’ve been working with the dsx style picking, and I’ve been working with Tommaso’s lessons for pentatonic scales and the Gilbert sixes. I’m still having trouble with speed. I have videos out, any help would be great

Hey man! Fellow DSX’er here! I checked out your videos, good stuff, looks and sounds like you’re making great progress! Now keep in mind that I am nobody - but I have suffered a bit in my quest to try and get my picking together so maybe these points can help!
Make sure that your tremolo picking form and your 'scale picking" form look and feel the same. I feel this is probably overlooked, folks are like “ok, I can tremolo pick - neeext!” But really, the key things to pay attention to are the form’s look and feel. In my opinion. lol it took a lot of trial and error to arrive at that conclusion, no lie…
I had a lot of success with doing “even note per string” tremolos, starting on an upstroke 6NPS, 4NPS and 2NPS. repeating notes with focus on the picking hand, if that makes any sense?
Repeating the sequence on a single string, and then working it between tow, then 3 strings and then string skipping I find really help cement an idea.
Good luck, I hope some of this was helpful, if not my apologies!
