DSX pulling through the string plane

I've been moving towards less rotation and a little more wrist. I've been trying to find an upward escape motion that avoids hopping over the string plane in favor of kind of "pushing through" (or really in my case pulling through) the string plane instead of catching in it. This is maybe easier to do with a downward rest stroke but I'm starting with DSX because that's what I'm more comfortable with, though I'd like to be ambidextrous on that eventually. This pattern has all possible directions for DSX crossing strings... up to a higher string down stroke, down to a higher string upstroke, down to a lower string upstroke, and up to a lower string downstroke. I'd really like to target 300 bpm in the long run. Happy to make more videos.

Used the pin to avoid rotation and help with anchoring.

USX vs DSX exploration

2 full alternate DSX, hopping to string skip 2 full alternate DSX, rotating to string skip 4 DSX with a slide on the second string skip 2 full alternate USX, rest strokes 2 with slide to string skip USX 2 with rotation to string skip A little bit of garbage at the end, as a treat
