Thumb over.
on: September 05, 2005, 07:34:18 PM
Whenever I'm reading a topic, sooner or later (or so it seems), there comes the 'thumb under' vs. 'thumb over' problem. I must admit that I'm still rather much deciphering the meaning and the movement involved in 'thumb over'... So could anyone (I'm thinking particularly of Bernhard, whose posts have given me quite a lot... ;D) describe? Thanks.  :)

Then shouldn't it have been obvious that this topic has already been described to death? Please search next time.

Check out this thread, Bernhard recently posted a ton of links... three or four of them go into detail of the thumb over method.
