Hey guys,
As I bought the tablet around 1 and a half year ago I was inspired by top players ( well actually only by cookiezi and happystick ^^) to hover. For me there was actually no other choice but to do like they did ( sad but true ). As I got used to the tablet, my brain started to mature a little bit and realized that I don't have to play like my favorite proplayers do. I changed from hovering to dragging, because it was easier for me to balance the weight of the pen and my hand on the actuall pen. Now after around 1 year playing I realized that I have serious issues in terms of hitting particular jump patterns or rather having a free movement. It's not like I don't have any improvement at all in Osu!, but it feels like there is a border that I can not overcome because of anatomic reasons.
Today I tried to hover after a very long time. It felt very good and free for the first 10 minutes, because I didn't have this movement blockade,. Ofc I was rather shaky and streams weren't as easy as I was dragging, but I think this is something i can get used to. But after 15 minutes it became clear why I stopped hovering : I literally got a cramp in my hand and it did really hurt xD
So I ask you: Do you maybe have any experience like that ? I think hovering would certainly help me in progressing but I also don't want to kill my hand. Is it worth trying to get used to it or try other grips ? Or should I just keep on dragging ?
Ps: I know there have been a lot topics about dragging/hovering, but I'd really like to hear oppinions on my particular problem. I tried to search something like that, but couldn't find a very similar topic. (Im sorry if I oversaw something. I'd be glad if you would post the link then)
