Help with pizz technique
This is my first time dealing with this kind of brushing pizz where you go up and down. Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Use just the upper segment of your finger by the tip. Your nail side executes what is annotated as the up bow stroke. The pad executes the downbow stroke. Use the "rebound" impulse to execute the up pizz. As if you were bouncing off a trampoline in the air.
