Corsair K70 Wrist rest?

shirokado

Is it just me? or does the corsair k70 feel terrible. it's so slippery. any solutions to this? or is it just not the keyboard for me. my logitech g710+ felt awsome.

change your typing position and don't use it.

See that's just wrong actually. Much of that just seems inaccurate also.

Type with whatever is comfortable. I prefer a true wrist rest not the palm rest that's included with the K70. Also my keyboard is not below me as that is uncomfortable and unergonomic. It's right on top my desk at standard desk height and the wrist rest is at the level of the keyboard. If anything my weight is on my arms or on elbows on the arm wrests .

I don't think palm rests are a joke though as they are just useless and annoying.

Imo its not slippery but its too short

If you saying the palm rest, it's unless but a nice after market one. I prefer ones at least 4.25in wide.

Main this I see wrong in that study is where the keyboard is. Push it farther onto the desk and rest you arms on the desk, so much better.

Got a link to a study backing up your perspective?

 

I find slouching comfortable, but that's terrible for your back. Doing what's comfortable is not always what's best for you, sometimes you have to force yourself in to better habits.

What does a true wrist rest look like?

(sorry for reviving this thread XD)
