Thumbs poll

crazyextra · 03-10-2006, 09:19 PM

Just out of curiousity, I wanted to see how many of you guys fly with thumbs, or the other way...thumb and forefinger. Personally I fly thumb and forefinger, I've tried to just thumb it and I'm all over the sky lol

crazyextra · 03-10-2006, 09:58 PM

that could do some damage

**Boulder** · 03-10-2006, 10:00 PM

ya' gotta' learn to pinch the stick gently, you have much more control that way

Thumb Man.

Haase · 03-10-2006, 10:01 PM

I can put my thumb on it.

**ConRadical** · 03-10-2006, 10:01 PM

I do both, but mostly do my thumbs.. i'm trying to switch though because my thumbs are double jointed.. so it's all smoother with thumb and finger.

Thumbs

Try writing with a pen in nice neat script controling it just with your thumb. Now try it with your thumb and fore finger. Much more precise control...at least that's the way it works best for me. Just my take on the topic.
