Hi Rachel -
Regarding question number 2 below... 

In 0-0, the right arm and hand together are moving as a unit "side-right and then up-and-forward" and then "side-left and then up-and-forward" - so if you keep doing that pattern it becomes a winding path that is moving diagonally up and forward... so if a "diagonal" is a slope then yes - that is what it is! ;-)

yes, you have interpreted it correctly I believe ;-)

Thanks for the questions, Rachel -

Val ;-)
