Sweep Picking Gets 10X Easier When You Know This

By Odins Balls !! I just got it. Relaxing the hands and just letting the pick glide with very little effort made it sound great.

I think you're a brilliant teacher and player but I've got to say I really don't agree with any of this advice. If you slow down the video you can hear all of the notes in your sweeping sort of bleed together. If that's the kind of sound you're going for then fair enough. Jeff Loomis' sweeping sounds like this too and I know you're a big fan of him. Personally, I prefer the Steven Taranto sound where every note is clearly articulated.
If you practice the motion you describe as 'dragging the pick through 3 strings at once' you're not gonna get a clean sound because you can't practice it at slow tempos to synchronise your hands. If you try to do that technique slowly the note in the middle won't be in time. The motion you need to practise is actually dragging the pick through the strings one by one. I can see you doing this in the video when you play the sweeps at low tempos. It's sort of like when you're a kid and you drag a stick along a chain fence.
I did the whole 'sweeping is one motion with your picking hand' for a few years and never really developed clean sweeps. It's only in the last few months since I bought Claus Levin's course 'flow control' that I have cleaned up my sweeps massively. This is the advice that he gives, if anyone is struggling like I was I'd highly recommend buying that course.
