Hi. I've been drawing on influences of the likes of Steve Harris and their impressive phallic bass moves. I'm working on my own moves and know the importance of practice but need some advice, and where better to ask than here.

The move I'm concentrating on primarily is 'The Zip', executed in standing position. I place the butt of the bass body into the inner thigh extending the bass towards a would-be audience.

At the end of each phrase I thrust hips forward, slipping the neck through my fretted hand to produce a glissando. That's all fine. I'm struggling to remember the correct technique for the switch back move. Mine's not looking so graceful, and I seem to end up with my feet to far apart?

No doubt I've missed something silly but hopefully someone can remind me how it's done and I can get this popular move practiced to perfection.

I’m amazed Scott’s bass lessons hasn’t covered this. 

I heard he stopped after laddering his glove?
