down up down up down
two downs in a row...starting each new section with a down stroke.....ALL the demos feature this approach

You need to have your pick angled towards the floor for this lick, that's what makes changing strings after upstrokes easier and that's also why EJ and Yngwie use economy picking - they are downward pick slanters. If you angle your pick upwards, like John McLaughlin, you wont be able to change strings as quickly after upstrokes.
Has anyone ever transcribed/videoed an ascending version, or an extended lick with this approach? I've applied the concept to ascending, but it doesn't sound so 'EJ' as the descending one.
So basically, I could spend the time trying to work it out, or I could ask for someone who's already put in the hard effort to help a lazy git out. I mustered enough energy, (just), for option 2 :-)
