English translation:string skipping
Explanation:
"!Lo string skipping in italiano si può tradurre con "salti di corda" poiché si andranno a suonare corde distanti tra di loro, ovvero quando si suona su corde non adiacenti fra loro. Si possono avere salti di corda di una, due, tre o quattro corde. Non è una tecnica molto semplice o immediata, richiederà un po' di studio e pratica ed è un tipo di tecnica che aiuterà molto la coordinazione della mano destra con la sinistra. "
