I'm confused. At 1:32 you said gyro (more dot facing you) would kill depth (unless I misheard). At around 2:51 you said the more the dot faces you (more gyro) the "more" depth you're going to get. Which is correct? If i'm looking to throw a gyro slider like Daniel Hudson :28 mark here - kzbin.info/www/bejne/qZ3Rq4mio9iYl5I where do I want that dot facing and does an in-the-horseshoe or maybe 2 seam grip work better for that? I do have some understanding of spin and seam orientation. Thanks

Sorry for the confusion! By killing depth I meant you will get more depth with the dot facing you more. Off-centered 4seam grip will worm best. How much the dot faces you will be determined by the movement you want.
