2. are you supposed to lock the side of hand and then slap or is it supposed to be free
3. how far in and out should your thumb go when u slap?
4. this ones sorta stupid but its supposed ot make a slapping sound right cuz in the demonstration i saw there was no slap sound just the note
5. is my thumb muscle the only thing moving or my whole wrist or arm or all?
