Critique #1 - basic motion examination

Description

Hello, Thank you for taking the time to look at my videos. I've been struggling with my picking for DECADES. Anything with 3-notes on a string is sloppy and I can't gain any speed. I've been relying heavily on legato for a long time. I guess I need to know what specifically I should fix to start improving. Thanks again. Daniel

This is the Yngwie type lick I think. This is about the limit of my speed. I think my left hand is the slower one of the two now.
