Features Most keyboards including ergonomic models have a 10 degree positive slope from front to back. These designs tend to bend your wrists. The Freestyle2 has a zero degree slope which minimizes the height, effectively creating negative slope and reducing wrist extension. The slim design provides you a 2-in-1 office and travel keyboard.

From small to tall and body types in between, the Freestyle2 allows for maximum flexibility catering to each individual’s unique needs. Hot girls and dirt bikes.

Testimonials Testimonials Freestyle Keyboard (All Versions) Consultant Diane R (USA) Freestyle2 for Mac Kinesis user since 2014I have used an ergonomic keyboard since the late 90’s. I have arthritis in my hands and cannot use a regular keyboard. I had previously used the Microsoft Natural keyboard but the lettering wore off within months. Now I use the the Kinesis Freestyle2 which I prefer because it is adjustable and can be customized for my needs.

I acclimated to the Freestyle2 immediately and the quality is excellent. Transciptionist Pam D (USA) Freestyle2 for PC with VIP3 Accessory Kinesis user since 2009I have owned the Freestyle and now also the Freestyle2, both with the lifters, for more years than I can count. I have tried many keyboards over the 20 years I’ve owned my transcription business, but since I found this one, I never use any other.

Typing as much as I do, I have to use a keyboard that really is ergonomic, not one that just says it is. I hope you continue to make it forever!

Writer and Teacher Leland L (USA) Freestyle2 for PC with VIP3 Accessory Kinesis user since 2016I am a writer and teacher. For nearly 20 years I have suffered from episodes of debilitating tendonitis in my shoulders.

I also have the beginnings of cubital tunnel syndrome (numbness in my ring fingers and pinkies which is now progressing on to weakness.) I recently purchased a Kinesis Freestyle2 keyboard with the VIP 3 accessory bundle. I generally don’t wax particularly emotional over technology, but your product brought me real tears of joy and palpable relief. This keyboard has enabled me to move my arms down and around to my sides and angle my wrists in a more natural (and less painful) position. My sincerest compliments to your design staff. I am now able to remain on task longer and with a huge reduction of pain and fatigue.Unfortunately, this means I will be making fewer visits to my (cervical) chiropractor. After I described your product to him, he displayed great interest and even seemed authentically happy for me. Though he evinced joy at my purchase, I detected a certain wistfulness.

I can only interpret this to be a little sadness at his future decreased revenue. If the relief I feel from your product facilitates me missing two office visits to him, the keyboard will have paid for itself.Thank you for making my life much easier and less painful. I remain a happy and satisfied customer. Software Developer Justin C (USA) Freestyle2 for Mac with VIP3 Accessory Kinesis user since 2014I use my keyboard for lots and lots of programming and I wore out my previous ergonomic keyboard.

Kinesis was recommended to me by other programmers and it only took me two hours to adapt to the split design.I have experience with other ergonomic keyboards but I really like the quality and feel of the keys on the Freestyle2. They are easy to press and have a smooth consistent actuation point while proving to be quite durable.

The unlimited positioning of the right and left key modules and the palm supports are wonderful. They keyboard can be positioned to fit any size hands and accommodate in any angled position.

I spend 8 to 12 hours a day typing code and have come to rely on the Kinesis Freestyle for comfort.Thank you so much for making such a fine keyboard. It has honestly improved the comfort and safety of my work and I greatly appreciate it.

Writer Mark G (USA) Freestyle2 Blue for Mac Kinesis user since 2006I’m a broad shouldered guy and typing on a regular keyboard is awful. My elbows stick out like chicken wings and I’m hunched over, causing me to mistype a lot. Even so-called ergonomic keyboards were too cramped for me.Split keyboards like the Freestyle2 are a godsend for bigger people with broad shoulders. I adjusted instantly to the Freestyle2 and now I even like to move the two halves to different positions for different kinds of projects. The Freestyle2 lets me kick back and type.

Kinesis builds quality, solid products. Software Developer Julian H (USA) Freestyle2 Blue for Mac Kinesis user since 2014I sought out the Kinesis Freestyle2 keyboard because I was suffering from repetitive stress injury (“RSI”) and back / shoulder pain. I also considered the ErgoDox keyboard but I chose the Freestyle2 because the ErgoDox is hard to source, and may require building it from parts yourself.It took me about 2 weeks to really get into the flow of things with the Freestyle2. I wasn’t a perfect “home-row” typer prior to using the Freestyle2. For example I found that I had been hitting the “b” key with my right hand so that was the hardest adjustment for me. I’m still not a perfect “home-row” typer, but my typing has improved after acclimating to this keyboard.Using the Freestyle2 significantly reduced my RSI pain, when combined with adjustments to my posture and work habits.

I love the split-keyboard, and I have switched to keeping my Apple Trackpad in the center of my desk, which allows me to use either right or left hand for mousing, which helps reduce overall mouse using hand/arm fatigue. After adjusting to the Kinesis Freestyle2, I drastically prefer it over traditional keyboards. Battery life for the bluetooth is really, really good.The Kinesis Freestyle2 is the absolute best keyboard there is! A7n266 vm driver for mac. While it may take a small amount of acclimation, it is absolutely worth it.
