  1. Recently I've noticed a pain in my right (hopping) hand. The pain is in
    the joint that connects the finger bone to the hand on both my middle
    and ring fingers. Does anyone else get this pain, or is there something
    wrong with my hopping technique?

  4. I am learning seat out stuff, and the KH seat is soooo thick it is hard
    to hold tightly for long periods of time. Try relaxing the hand when you
    can. I was thinking about inventing a handle that goes under the seat on
    the left side (and behind the seat post) to make it easier to hold
    tightly for long periods of time.

    'my hands' (http://the-clinic.nl/) are OK.
    Maybe drop your question at Yuri Abrahams.

  6. Are you using a Viscount seat? On my hands, those are the only two
    fingers that fit under the front bumper, so they do all the work.

    Are you doing lots of seat out hopping? What kind of seat? What kind of
    riding?

    Your hand is more important than constant practice, so you may need to
    give it a rest so it can heal.

  7. Just a few weeks ago, I posted the same question. Some people told me
    that it helps to wear glove, and that the pain would probably go away. I
    tried a glove and the pain is now gone. I think the pain is a result of
    not being used to using a handle, just give it some time and it'll be
    fine.
