Hello I'm Roy from Pennsylvania, USA.

I just got a 7 Pin Ultimate Adversary repinnable practice lock to help learn a little better how to SPP locks.

It's a SC1 Restrictive keyway. Any suggestions or recomendations on a good lock pick(s) to purchase for practicing with this particular keyway?

Also would like to ask.. Why post a new thread? Doesn't seem like it's a reply to the current "Introduce Yourself" thread. Again, it seems like it's a new thread, and not a new reply to the current thread.

My preference would be to use a short hook pick.

Usually a short hook or half diamond for me. I still have trouble with the SC1 keyways sometimes
and have to admit I've been bested by them more than once. Don't get discouraged. Take your time
& be sure to stay calm & focused on what you're feeling, what's happening, & where you're at in the lock.

Welcome Roy!
