Looking to add new guitar techniques into my routine. I keep forgetting about a lot of techniques so I thought the best thing to do would be to write them down and stick it to my wall so I don't forget about them. Would be good if you guys could add others to the list which I have forgotten or don't know about.
Bends
Trills
Hammer ons
Pull offs
Legato
Arpeggio
Vibrato
Bend Vibrato
Classical Harmonics
Pinch Harmonics
Tapped Harmonics
Harp Harmonics
Natural Harmonics
Folk Fingerstyle
Sweep Picking

You seem to have got most of it covered...  I'd probably add "alternate picking" to the list of "techniques" but that's about all. I'm assuming it's more a list of the "mechanics" of guitar playing that you're building here? otherwise I'd add things like rhythms, scales, modes and alternate tunings... oh, and "relax and have fun" is always high on my own list of things to remember when practising!

Thanks, I will add "alternate picking" and "rhythm patterns" to my list. I have never come across modes yet, so that is something I will look into.

The most important skill is being able to use the term 'pull off' without giggling like a 13 year old.
I have yet to master it, but I live in hope.
