Well, I don't think it's physically possible to pick up and down at the same time unless you have two picks and yea...

Alright, but sweep picking, the way i was taught, is moving your pick downwards without lifting up your pick, and moving up without lifting up your pick. Takes a bit of work, but it comes.
I can't help it. When I get an idea that excites me it's as if I can't breath unless I make it real.
