What do you mean? I can bend it back at about 120 deg from the back For my left hand quite well, except the ring finger. i can push it back a little further with slight discomfort LEft hand, kinda I guess Left handed Technical. I like to get my tricks down properly I dont have a ruler with me so I used my other hand. Its about the same size and a bit longer busts or continuous fl tricks i alternate cause i find that spinning light mods first and then using heavy ones give you a better feel of the heavier ones. Though i like the thought of using lighter ones. Makes it seem you have better control Not very independent lol. Just good enough haha

1) I think so? It's not perfectly perpendicular when I stretch it out if that's what you're asking. 2) Just enough to do inverse shadows. 3) Right 4) Short, compared to my palm size at least. 5) I'm not double jointed or anything, but years of flush sonics makes me slightly dextrous I guess. 6) Style. 7) 7 inches exactly. 8) Hm. I guess Neosonic 23-TF > FL Ext. TA T-12 bust. I can do it but I usually can't land it as a finisher. 9) Light. I spin MXs and Comssas for the most part. I consider Comssa Metallics pretty heavy. 10) Decently?

I think it's actually 21.5cm. In spite of working just a two minute walk away, in an environment with about 4-5 tape measures, I can't be bothered to measure. But yeah, judging from this 19cm pencil, it looks like 21.5cm would be correct. -

-is your thumb curved? It curves back about 30 degrees backwards when fully extended. It also is hypermobile at the first joint and can go backwards in a way that looks like it's coming out of the joint -how well do your fingers hyper extend? They go back about 45 degrees when extended fully, if I push them back they will go backwards 90 degrees. -do you have short or long fingers? I have disproportionate hands to my body, I can do a Steinberg sign (Where if you close your palm with your thumb under your fingers, the thumb sticks out from yourr palm) and a walker-murdoch sign, where you cup your hand around your wrist and your thumb and pinky finger overlap. They basically show you have arachnodactyly (Spider hands, disproportionately long, slender hands and fingers) and are a symptom of Marfan syndrome (What bonkura had) -are your fingers flexible? Extremely, I can literally knot my hands in ways other people can't -are you left or right handed? Right. -do you focus on style or technical more? Technical -how long (from tip of middle to end of palm) is your hand? When I measured them like a year ago, they were 20.5cm long -what trick do you continuously practice but can never do? I'm currently working on a trick that I can't do yet, it is a form of tap needing the ability to do the steinburg sign, so I hope I will be the only one able to do it. -do you prefer heavy or light mods? Heavy. -how independent are your fingers? I can put my fist on the table with ring finger out only and extend it straight, so they're pretty independent.
