One minute bass fretboard tip with Ari about position shift on the fretboard

There’s a figure on the fretboard that I call the “crab”. I call it the crab because it helps you with position shifts by one fret, This is what the crab looks like:

In my Pattern System there are two patterns that have the crab in them – Pattern two:
