I’ve been a leading edge player since I first started playing and the fastest I ever got with it was about 170bpm where the hand kind cramps up. But about 4 months ago I discovered that the fastest motion I can do is the trailing edge at about 200bpm, although I don’t find it nearly as comfortable as leading edge. So I wanna translate my trailing edge speed into leading edge.

I'm trying to get a working DSX Trailing edge motion that can hit at least 180 bpm on all strings. I do the DSX motion most naturally, but with a leading edge grip I can get only to about 160 bpm on a single string tremolo. I tried the trailing edge grip and it got to about 190 bpm, but only on the low E-string with the tall mouse form. I modified the form a little bit and got something that almost works on the other strings, the pick just seems to get stuck on the strings. I tried to find any other players that would use a similar form like me, but didn't find anybody. Is my form incorrect or do I just need to get used to it with time? What should I concentrate on when practising on this?
