Basically, you gently puch the string back and forth while you bend it up and down slightly. Steve Vai uses this often, For the Love of God is a good example. Anyways, I just thought it was pretty interesting, it's incredibly difficult for me, though. Anybody ever hear of this technique, or have any tips on mastering it?

This circular looks "cooler",that's for sure. You can get same sound with regular vibrato with adjusting right timing and volume of vibrato.
