the pattern is index down - thumb down - index up . All the time , thats the easy part of the cheri picking explain in the video by tobias, the dificult part is apply that triplette in singles string and mix all.

sory about my english
Both are correct... it depends on where you want to put the strong beat... which tends to be on the index down. Try to play the same tune starting with the thumb down or starting with the index down. The feeling, sound and difficulty is very different.
On James Hill's Smash the window (see the tab) he starts with the thumb. I can not say if he always do so. My guess would be it depends on the song.
Not so. If he is using this technique, he starts with the thumb. Otherwise it would be just a regular triplet strum. Tobias makes this very clear and he has studied with James over several weeks.
in my earlier post I said "dead thumb" rather than "DropThumb". Dead thumb can be used for Cherry Picking but has much less utility when used for highG reentrant tuning.
Did you complet the tabing of St Anne's reel?
When I was initially searching, I found that Tobias has a whole playlist dedicated to the technique, including a few videos breaking down the first part of this song. I'm looking forward to giving this a shot!Since this is the technique sub-forum, any suggestions on what we should be focusing on to emulate technique-wise from James Hill's video. It is the thumb, right?
