Maybe you should learn, "The Stroke" by Billy Squier first. That should help your stroking.

Just make sure you aren't pushing up to high with your finger on A(2).

you could leave the high e open, might hurt your hand a little more, but it gives it fuller sound.

Some people also like to use lotion or baby oil.

"The Stroke" by Billy Squier is terrible...the video is not much better either.

I'm a much better stroker than Billy Squier

I never stoked anything while playing Crash before! Does it help you sound more like Dave? ;)

It's all about the stroking of the shaft.
