Kinesis KIN-FS-VIP3 Tenting Accessory - Black

The Freestyle is the most versatile ergonomic keyboard on the market and is designed to adapt to your body type and preferences to increase your comfort and boost your productivity. Customize the position of the keyboard modules with adjustable split and splay to achieve natural positions for your hands, wrists, and forearms to reduce static muscle tension and strain. Add the VIP accessory for adjustable tenting of 5, 10, or 15 degrees with cushioned palm supports. The Freestyle keyboard family addresses forearm pronation with three different modular tenting accessories designed to work with or without palm supports.

Quickly attach the tenting accessory to the bottom of the keyboard to elevate the inner edge of the key module. Tenting lets you type with your forearms in a more neutral and comfortable position. Pronation in the forearm and wrist occurs when typing with your palms face down towards the worksurface. Sustained pronation puts pressure on the forearm muscles and tissues which reduces blood circulation and can lead to fatigue and repetitive strain injuries ("RSI"). Research demonstrates that a moderate elevation of the thumb side of the hand dramatically reduces the pressure on the forearm muscles.
