Okay, here is a tremolo attempt based on what was recently discussed. I did a tremolo, attempting to maintain the level of supination in the previous attempt (although this may have "slipped back" a bit) and anchored on the bridge. This time I'm trying to do a rest stroke in both directions or trapped motion maybe, as discussed earlier. I did a few takes of this and I thought this was the best one overall and actually just my second take. I got a bit "noisier" after this and then I did a fifth and final take which was possibly cleaner; but strayed to a more pronated form, I think.

I sort of loop over the major scale in this video. Pick directions should be consistent with economy picking (apart from maybe a couple of flubs); but in retrospect I think the technique is a bit bouncy and also as mentioned before I think I need to work on rest stroke technique to fix the "mini sweep" parts of this for proper economy picking.

This is another tremolo attempt. I have attempted to be a bit more supinated in this video but without anchoring on the bridge. However, I have anchored on the body with my forearm. I thought this might work better due to being "more similar" to the earlier attempt from a few weeks ago when you asked me to try again more supinated. However, I think I was lightly anchored on the strings or something in that older video and when recording this new video it felt inferior to the video where I am anchored on the bridge.

Okay, here is another tremolo attempt. I have attempted to be a bit more supinated and I have anchored on the bridge with the pisoform bone on the bridge as suggested in the videos (and anchored on the body with my forearm). I haven't attempted to go to the more "beak-hand"-like versions of the RDT form that is visible in some - or even many - of the videos - hopefully this is okay.

Okay, here is a tremolo. I attempted to use my usual picking method. (I tried to "encourage" this by warming up with playing the major scale as fast as possible before. I could upload this as well, if you are interested, but it looks somewhat like string-hopping to me, although when I played it back, it was faster than I expected/ remembered.). So I think it looks most like wrist motion (although potentially with tremolo I might feel like treating it as a special case and use elbow motion although that might not be my usual picking technique). Anyway, with the tremolo, I did a couple of previous takes which were crisper; but a bit jerky. I've uploaded the last take which I think is less jerky; but unfortunately a bit blurry. I could upload the preceding take if you like or maybe you will want me to film another fresh video - hopefully this one is okay.
