Skipping the slap lessons?

You can look at the slap “through” technique too, it’s a bit more forgiving, especially if you don’t have. the optimal setup on your bass. I prefer the slap through technique, it’s much easier too for slapping on the G string, and I like the tone better vs the bounce style.

I think there’s a thread here where Josh discusses the difference between the two styles in response to an SBL video that suggests that slap through is how everyone should slap.

edit: this one Slapping through the string
