hey guys sup? i'm new here, this is my first post.
My name is Angelos.

I need some help. I have trouble trying to play fast, it's because I'm not holding the pick right, I know, but I tried different ways and still can't improve. For example, some Linkin Park songs require real fast palm muted upstrokes-downstrokes, I can't do that, downstrokes (direction down, right? just in case) are easy, but upstrokes usually move my pick in my hand and in the end I even drop it if I keep playing. or even with no palm muting, smells like teen spirit for example.

I can play that, but I have to hold the pick "wrong".

help please?
