    If its hurting you’re pinky to press on the octave then you need to start using you’re pinky more often and it’ll get used to applying the pressure needed and making the stretch it needs to reach it.
    I know it suck but keep at it

    You’re not letting …
    You’re not letting your thumb jump off in time…Don’t use the weight of your entire hand to slap, only use the weight of your hand to direct the thumb to get the slap. When you get it right let me know.
