I'm curious.

When alting fast my pinky raises along with my ring finger, but only my main knuckles move not my finger knuckles. I know of some people that curl their fingers or push their thumb against their keyboard.

When singletapping (I singletap with my middle finger with the movement purely coming from my wrist) my index finger raises and straightens out. I learned that I do this the other day, don't feel like changing it cause I get 60ur vs 80ur when consciously trying not to move my index finger in jump sections.

I tap with my index and middle on the z and x keys, and my wrist is on the table

My fingers are pretty curled, I think it's because I curl them to tap faster when I play DT and I played so much DT that my fingers are naturally always curled now

Sometimes I have my wrist on the table but usually I don't and instead have my forearm on the edge of the table.

Also index and middle on the z and x keys, full alt (outside of consecutive doubles which I generally start with my middle finger)

When I alt I mostly just move my knuckles but with slight exaggeration from my wrist to time my hits better, kind of like using your wrist to singletap

No idea what my other fingers are doing

I raise my wrist quite a bit, tap with index + middle and my ring/pinky fingers are only mildly curled.

Edit: I should mention that I am exclusively full alt, even trying to singletap confuses my brain and often results in a fingerlock.

I partially alternate with Index and middle finger, I don't move my wrist and I don't raise my fingers too much
