Once you've got that down, practice "clicking" the rod by bracing like in the picture below (how I do it, though there are other options if you find another way more comfortable) and flexing your fingers back and forth. Practice until you can click it with small controlled motions.

Hopefully that makes sense and helps some, lol.

I happened to have mine next to me, because I jsut finished curling some extensions. That is EXACTLY how I hold it lol

It seriously just takes a LOT of practice, practice, practice!!!
