Tenting your keyboard addresses forearm pronation — but if you also perform precision bench work, microscopy, or lab tasks, forearm contact stress is the next issue to solve. The Wedge-Ease Forearm Support is the ideal companion: a stackable gel cushion that eliminates hard-edge pressure on forearms during extended precision work sessions.

  • Stackable 1", 2", and 3" heights for custom elevation
  • Medical-grade gel, chemical-resistant, non-slip base
  • Made in USA — 1-year warranty

FAQs About the Kinesis Ascent Tenting Kit

1

Who is the Kinesis Ascent Tenting Kit designed for?

The Kinesis Ascent Tenting Kit (AC740-BLK) is designed for Freestyle2 keyboard owners who need more aggressive tenting angles than standard kits provide, including users managing severe RSI or chronic wrist pain, vertical-typing enthusiasts, and anyone building an advanced ergonomic setup. It's intended for people who've found standard 5-15° tenting insufficient for their needs.

2

What tenting angles does the Kinesis Ascent Tenting Kit offer?

The Kinesis Ascent Tenting Kit adjusts from 20 to 90 degrees in 10-degree increments, with each keyboard module adjustable independently. At the full 90-degree setting, it supports true vertical typing, which is intended to dramatically reduce forearm pronation compared with a flat or lightly tented keyboard.

3

Which keyboard does the Kinesis Ascent Tenting Kit work with?

The Kinesis Ascent Tenting Kit is compatible with the Kinesis Freestyle2 keyboard (KB800 series), which is sold separately. It is not compatible with the Freestyle Pro, Freestyle Edge, or legacy Freestyle Solo keyboards, so check your specific Freestyle model before ordering.

4

What is the Kinesis Ascent Tenting Kit made of, and how sturdy is it?

The Kinesis Ascent Tenting Kit is made of solid metal, manufactured in the USA, and weighs 6.5 lbs — a deliberately heavy, stable build intended to eliminate bounce or wobble even at extreme tenting angles like 90 degrees. That sturdiness matters more as tenting angle increases, since a lighter or less rigid kit would be more prone to shifting under load.

5

What's included with the Kinesis Ascent Tenting Kit?

The Kinesis Ascent Tenting Kit includes left and right Ascent tenting modules, an optional linking plate for connecting the two keying modules, and assembly instructions. The Freestyle2 keyboard itself and any palm supports are sold separately from this kit.

6

Can I use palm supports with the Kinesis Ascent Tenting Kit at any angle?

Palm supports (sold separately) are only compatible with the Kinesis Ascent Tenting Kit at lower tenting angles, specifically between 20 and 40 degrees. At steeper angles beyond that range, the geometry of the tenting kit doesn't support using palm supports the same way.
