The Freestyle keyboard is the most versatile keyboard on the market.
It's a breakthrough in ergonomic design!
-
The Freestyle keyboard for Mac has the familiar Mac key layout. This familiar key layout provides for minimal adaptation time.
-
Precise separation and splay adjustment adapts to your individual ergonomic needs.
-
The keyboard halves can be tented to reduce discomfort caused by pronation
(VIP or Incline accessory kit required).
-
The key layout incorporates unique features for performance and comfort,
with almost no adaptation time.
-
Adds a stylish accent to your workstation with a modern contemporary look.
The Freestyle keyboard is available in three combinations:
-
The Freestyle Solo
keyboard includes the basic keyboard, split into two halves that can
be splayed and separated if desired.
-
The Freestyle VIP
keyboard adds the VIP accessory kit to the Freestyle Solo.
The VIP accessory adds palm pads to both keyboard halves
and allows the inside edge of each half to be tented upwards at an
angle of 10° or 15°.
-
The Freestyle Incline
keyboard adds the Incline accessory kit to the Freestyle Solo.
The Incline accessory adds palm pads to both keyboard halves
and provides a fixed splay (up to 30°) and tenting (10° only) of the keyboard,
with the two halves connected at the top.
The Freestyle Solo Keyboard for Mac is available in only one configuration:
-
The Freestyle Solo with a 8" cable
between the keyboard halves provides enough separation for most
body types and workstation configurations.
- White colour only is available.
-
Separation
-
Up to 8" of complete separation of both left and right keyboard modules.
Perfect for individuals requiring greater separation
than that provided by other ergonomic keyboards.
-
Splay
-
The two keyboard halves can be connected together by
attaching the included flexible pivot tether,
allowing an infinite range of splay.
Simple slide release buttons allow the attachment or removal of
both the pivot tether and the Incline accessory base.
-
Tenting
-
With the VIP accessory, tenting angles of 10° and 15° can be achieved.
With the Incline accessory, tenting is fixed at 10°.
-
Profile
-
Most keyboards, even ergonomic models, have a 10° positive slope
from the back edge to the front edge.
These designs tend to bend your wrists and can cause discomfort.
The Freestyle Solo has a sleek, low profile design with 0° slope
that minimizes the height,
effectively creating a negative slope and reducing wrist extension.
-
Footprint
-
At only 15.375" wide, the Freestyle Solo provides for close placement
of any pointing device, keeping you in your comfort zone
and reducing any discomfort that may be caused by overreaching.

-
The Freestyle Solo is a separated keyboard joined by a 8" cable, allowing you to
separate the two halves of the keyboard up to 8". The separated halves
can also be joined together with a pivot tether, allowing the keyboard to be splayed at the joint.
-
VIP Accessory

You can add the optional VIP accessory to the Freestyle Solo to create tenting of the keyboard
halves by 10° or 15°. The VIP accessory also includes detachable wrist supports with
replaceable palm pads.
-
Incline Accessory
-
You can add the optional Incline accessory to the Freestyle Solo to create fixed tenting of the keyboard
halves by 10°. The Incline accessory also includes detachable wrist supports with
replaceable palm pads. For those who want more versatility in positioning the keyboard, the VIP
accessory is the best option.

- Driverless hot keys for commonly used mouse actions. (Internet Page Forward and Back, Beginning of Line, End of Line, Cut, Undo, Copy, Select All and Paste).
-

Double-wide Keys

providing an easier target for your fingers to press.

Key Switches
-
The Freestyle Solo uses a quiet, tactile membrane key switch.
Rated at 10 million operations, this keyboard will provide years of
comfortable typing.
-
Pivot Tether
- Both modules can be connected together by attaching the included the flexible pivot tether allowing an infinite range of splay.
-
No Embedded Numeric Keypad
-
The Freestyle Solo for Mac does not have an embedded keypad, unlike the Freestyle Solo for PC.
