'PIC 'n DIP' technique practice - FULL VID. (Short uploaded to). 

If your gonna practice you should start by going forward left to right and the overhand you should go right to left if your going for speed your doing it backwards a bricklayer should be able to lay from each side but if your right handed left to right is going forward I know guys that will spot a twig in the middle of the wall just so we can both go forward left to right I knows your not the only right handed bricklayer that likes going right to left but it is backwards the short super trowel video you posted Charlie and Ash are doing it like I said the reason for that is obvious the girl is going backwards and she has to perp the bricks in her hand

Well done and a good effort. The speed will come with practice and experience. I always used smaller trowels when "picking and dipping" and its important to have your bricks and mortar as close together as is viable - depending on site conditions. So you are picking the brick up at the same time as the mortar - and its becomes one fluid motion onto the wall. The mortar consistency has to be perfect for pick & dip as well. Well done though. 👍😁🧱⚒
