@dangerics Thanks for the reply! The best I can really do is between 3:24 and 4:00 in the video above. But maybe this will help, the thumb and the ring finger push towards each other to get the inside mallet in a comfy position. The index lifts up and sits on top of the inside mallet, ready to go back in at a moments notice. The part most people have trouble with is the slight knuckle repositioning. So if you take an empty hand and try to make it as skinny as possible...

I like all the video games in the back

@Marimbalogy that is the feeling your hand should get at a second. Or another way to explain is is try to make the base of your thumb touch the base of your ring finger. You'll notice that your knuckles move into a circular position. That should get the mallet heads next to each other. Hope this helps!

The content is great,but the speed of speaking is a little bit fast for an English leaner. But anyway, thanks for uploading.

Ziwei Miao well that's the normal speed English speakers speak at

Is it okay to have your thumb inside on larger intervals?

[@Marimbalogy]

Yep! You’re supposed to in fact!
