vata_pulse
Vata pulse is superficial, cold, light, thin, feeble and empty. With more pressure, it disappears. It moves fast and may become irregular. It is best felt under the index finger. With keen observation one can feel a little leech or a little cobra moving under the finger. Try to have that insight when feeling the pulse. Vata pulse is cold to the touch because of insufficient insulating material and very little subcutaneous fat, which is why people with a vata constitution lose heat and hate cold.
