Florian, I think the Nino de Pura method is valid, it just takes time to get comfortable with it. There are dozens of different ways to accomplish the same result, you just have to do it enough that it's automatic. That being said, some things work better for some people so it's not bad to experiment. I have two ways to play picado. Both of them, I touch the bass strings, usually the sixth. One is rather straight fingers, the other I flatten the wrist out and it looks more tirando. When I play with straight fingers I use the left edge of the nail, the other it's more the tip. I didn't intend to have two ways but as I still experiment sometimes this second one just evolved. Both involve significant shifts from arpeggio form.
