Fuck You Very Much
But is it necessary for me to change my left hand technique? Because I feel really comfortable of how my fingers come off the strings, and it does not feel like I am doing anything wrong. I tried to keep them very close but it doesn't work, I got big hands.

Also, it seems that my pinky does the very same thing as Gilbert's. It is high off the fretboard.
It's comfortable because you've been doing it for so long, doesn't make it the most efficient. I've only just changed the way I hold my pick because I feel that holding onto the guitar or the strings or the pickups like Alexi does is holding me back from playing 6 string, 3 nps runs easily. It feels really uncomfortable now but I CAN notice a difference when I do it so I'm just going to stick with it until it is comfortable because then, I'll be a much better picker and it'll be much easier to do those types of runs.
You say it doesn't work because you've only tried it for like 5 minutes? Compared to how long you've been playing like it, it's NOT going to be easy but you WILL benifit from it if you work hard on it. Big hands has nothing to do with it.
