Experience Unmatched Ergonomic Excellence with the Freestyle2

Sleek, Low-Profile Design: Step into a new era of keyboard design with the Freestyle2's sleek and low-profile aesthetic. Unlike conventional keyboards with a 10-degree positive slope that can strain your wrists, the Freestyle2 boasts a revolutionary zero-degree slope. This innovative design minimizes height, effectively creating a negative slope that reduces wrist extension. Its slim profile transforms it into a versatile 2-in-1 office and travel keyboard, combining style with functionality.

Accommodates a Wide Range of Individuals: Tailored for individuals of all sizes and body types, the Freestyle2 offers unparalleled flexibility. Connected by a flexible pivot tether out of the box, it allows for an infinite range of splay. Disconnecting the tether provides up to 9 or 20 inches of complete separation between the left and right keying modules. This adaptability caters to individual preferences, minimizing or eliminating ulnar deviation and ensuring a personalized ergonomic experience.

Low-Force, Tactile Key Switches: Engage in quiet, low-force typing with the Freestyle2's tactile membrane key switches. With a typical average maximum key force of 45 grams, it stands as a beacon of comfort. This force is at least 25% less than traditional and many ergonomic keyboards, such as the Microsoft 4000, with maximum key forces exceeding 60 grams.

2-Port 2.0 USB Hub: Effortlessly connect additional input devices, like mice, using the built-in 2-port 2.0 USB hub. Say goodbye to fumbling with USB ports on your computer and enjoy enhanced connectivity at your fingertips.

Left Side Driverless Hot Keys: Navigate with ease using the Freestyle2's driverless hot keys for common mouse actions. From Internet Page Forward and Back to Beginning and End of Line, Cut, Undo, Copy, Select All, and Paste, these keys are conveniently located on the left side. A vertical rib provides tactile notification for seamless control.

Standard Key Layout: Embark on a hassle-free transition with the Freestyle2's familiar key layout, minimizing adaptation time for users.

Optional Palm Supports: Prioritize wrist comfort with optional padded palm supports that reduce wrist extension, maintaining a neutral position for a truly ergonomic experience.

Immerse yourself in ergonomic excellence with the Freestyle2, where design meets functionality to create a keyboard tailored to your unique needs.
