Oh my Lord! It seems you are way overworking that wool on those carders. I could imagine the fibers being broken and nepps being formed from the aggressive carding that is taking place. Light touch is all that's needed. Thanks for the video otherwise.
I would highly recommend not combing in this fashion with your hand carders as you will damage the wires of the carders. It is a lift and pull off technique. Look at videos "how to make carded rolags" Beautiful walking wheel!!
