Size of the hand

Ok lets see, I'll need your feedback in order to determine if the metal size would be a biggy for me.

My hands measure 18.7 centimeters from the start of my palm to the tip of my middle finger.

Middle finger: 8 cm
palm: 10.7 cm

Anyone here has smaller hands?

How bizarre this all is! Confused

Before I measure mine, I would just like to mention that I put the Metal rotor into a 250Hz casing last night. It was definitely slightly easier to grip, but not as much as I expected. I expected to be able to still hold on fairly easily at 11k, but I wasn't...the Powerball still tried to ease its way out of my grasp at those revs. So it's not that the Metal casing is simply too big...it's just that I'm too weak to cling on at those revs. Embarassed

Anyway, here's my left hand...it's pretty much the same as my right;

My palm has 17cm and my middle finger 7.5cm, but when I tried the metal I could make a good grip with it, the only "problem" is the great forces that it produces, but for me the slight bigger size was not a problem.

Well....it's true of course. What is important for powerballing is not only long fingers, but also a firm grip. The first thing you cannot train, but the second thing you can.

I thought I had the smallest hands in the forum, but that "honor" goes to Adrena1in (so far, but bigger fingers), still i think I have the smallest hands of all the 14k+ Powerballers.

Now that I have somewhat managed to get confortable grip with the PB counter models, I don't have problems with the ball like squeezing out of my hand, I feel my grip firm, but I do think that a bigger ball would give me problems and would take some time readjusting my grip and perhaps I won't feel as confortable.

Adding it up I've used a PB for a total of 11 -12 weeks, it took me 8 of those to find a confortable, strong grip.
