Re: Ridenour Thumb Saddle

I purchased one a couple months ago when I was experimenting with thumb positioning. Its a very well made product, but it caused tension as the extra material under the thumb made my grip too wide. My experience seems to be the opposite of almost everyone elses review of this product - most find the extra width of the grip relieves tension in the hand.

Also, if you have an adjustable thumbrest, you have to add a bit of material to the back of the saddle to compensate for a gap that is created. Othewise the thumbsaddle will wiggle and be unstable.
