What is tenting?
Backed by extensive research and testing
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.
- Compatible with KB900 and KB975.
- Not compatible with KB800 series Freestyle2 keyboards.
- Supports 3 different tenting heights.
- Not compatible with Palm Supports
Flat keyboards cause painful forearm pronation
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.
