So... to all the flamenco bunnies here... how long does it take to get over the awkwardness of this technique? In particular the "ring-index" combo? I can sort of do the "middle-index" combo but not at a blistering speed like some mofo's on youtube. And the "ring-index" makes sense with the spacing (in a way) to get the strokes even. But goddammit does this technique frustrate me... Gimme some good news, pls
Rasguedo Abanico... wtf!!!!
keep practicing 

Going on 30 years for me... ?
I'm pretty good at it, but by the end of the evening (like tonight), I get tired and the timing gets ragged.

And thanks for answering honestly... I wonder if Conrad would give it a bash too. In my mind, anyone who says that this technique is easy has acid for breakfast and has a saddle for a unicorn
I've been working on it for a while. On and off though. It's definitely something that needs to practiced constantly. I never got it perfect though.
Cool Lethe... thanks for the reply. I don't think I'll get it perfect either... will have to fake it for now... much like I fake being able to play guitar atm, hehehe.
Screw this technique, pffft

About 2 years of on/off practicing so far - I'm not fast or tight though :'(
I'm playing the long game, reckon I'll be hacking away for another 20 years. Just love the feel when I (rarely) manage to get it working.
