Attempt at Dart Thrower down picking motion

ive been in need of help with my down picking for a long time. My goal is to be able to play master of puppets up to tempo with the proper down picking as needed. The closest i can get is roughly 80 percent speed on guitar pro. I am currently just working on adapting the dart thrower motion and down picking on the bottom string. i would really appreciate some direction on what i am doing right and wrong and the best ways to implement and practice this new technique. Thanks so much

Tremolo picking 250bpm

Been grinding on the tremolo picking from the wrist. Felt like I had a breakthrough the other night and decided to capture some of it on video. I’ve been mostly doing tremolo one string at a time and then moving up and down the other strings. I decided to do that but also to add in little single note sequences that come in on the down beat to keep me honest in regards to the metronome and also just to help me keep things tight in general

Tall Mouse upstrokes

I’ve been trying to learn the Tall Mouse technique recently and have been putting significant amounts of time into it. I’m trying to do it along with the picking primer and experimenting on my own hoping for that “ahh ha” moment but it has evaded me so far as you can see. Decided to make a clip to show on the forum after about two hours of pure frustration today. Believe it or not, it was actually a thousand times worse than this when I started trying to learn it.. so this is the “improved” version after a bunch of practice haha….Please help!!!
