Kinesis Freestyle2 Keyboard

Award-Winning Split Keyboard

The Kinesis Freestyle2 is one of the most versatile keyboards available.  The low profile keyboard is divided into two separate modules connected by a cable.  The modular design allows the user to configure the keyboard in its optimal orientation, either by splaying the modules at any angle or by adjusting the distance between the modules.    

The Kinesis Freestyle2 is The National Ergonomics Conference and Exposition (The Productivity Show) Attendee's Choice Winner 2011. 

The Freestyle2 is an award-wining split keyboard designed to address the ergonomic risk factors related to typing by adjusting to your body.  It features a familiar Windows layout and convenient hotkeys. 

The Kinesis Freestyle2 for PC is available with two separation options, 20cm (9") and 50cm (20").

The Kinesis Freestyle2 Keyboard for Mac - 20cm Separation is a Wired Keyboard that is adjustable to suit different user body types by having a variable splay of 20cm.

The Freestyle2 Blue for PC is an award-winning split keyboard designed to adjust to your body and typing style.  The Kinesis Freestyle2 Blue™ wireless keyboard combines the award winning split-adjustable ergonomic design with the convenience of bluetooth connectivity.  No more sacrificing comfort when typing on a PC, Tablet, or Smartphone.  Multichannel technology lets users pair up to 3 three Bluetooth-enabled devices with the Freestyle2 Blue and instantly switch between them directly from the keyboard.  Driverless hot keys for commonly used mouse actions - Internet Page, Forward and Back, Undo, Web Home, Cut, Copy and Paste.  A vertical rib is located on the inside row of hot keys to provide tactile notification to the user. 

Sleek, Low Profile Design

Most keyboards, including ergonomic models, have a 10 degree positive slope from front to back.  These designs tend to bend your wrists.

The Freestyle2 has a zero degree slope which minimises the height, effectively creating negative slope and reducing wrist extension.

Accommodates a Wide Range of Individuals

From small to tall and body types in between, the Freestyle2 allows for maximum flexibility catering to each individual's unique needs.

Out of the box, both modules are connected together by a flexible pivot tether allowing an infinite range of splay.  Disconnecting the pivot tether allows for complete separation of both left and right keying modules.

Perfect for individual needs ranging from a narrow footprint to complete separation.  This design greatly reduces and or/eliminates ulnar deviation.

Low-Force, Tactile Key Switches

The Freestyle2 utilises a quiet, low-force, tactile membrane key switch.  The typical average maximum key force of a switch is 45 grams.  This is at least 25% less than most traditional and many ergonomic keyboards such as the Microsoft 4000 which has a maximum key force of over 60 grams.

Standard Key Layout

Familiar key layout provides for minimal adaptation time.
