Finger Rollers - Keyboards

[Husk]

using 1 or 2 spaces doesn't make a difference

the 2nd space will only shoot a rope if the 1st one is released, much like what would happen when using only 1 space

Better shadows and scrolls?

This is the only video I've seen of someone actually finger rolling http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Fh9IZpj-Qo

i can do this with 1 finger yep. OP: get a flat keyboard. or a laptop.

I didn't open this thread to start any form of debate whether FR is worth doing or not. I opened this thread asking people that FR to tell me what keyboards they use.

Logitech G15. U won't need any remapper because the spacebar is pretty sensitive and it has no significant keylock.

Like always I'd recommend the model I myself have been using since January 2012, Logitech Illumitaned. Note that it's rather expensive, though. I'm sure there are keyboards that are at least half as cheap and perform similarly well.
You can see a video of myself roping on that keyboard in Masta's post (thanks). That should also be an example that finger rolling doesn't necessarily involve remapping your space bar to two different keys.

Nice roping barman. Props for using one space so well.

Maybe there is a slight advantage for those starting off, but at the higher levels it doesn't really make a difference.

Alright, maybe for the top 5 ropers it doesn't make much difference..  you may have convinced me of that, but I still think that for 99.9% of people it's an unfair advantage.

Anyway thanks for keeping the responses civil. I went over the top a bit. Finger rolling (2 spaces) has bothered me for a while, but never enough to say something about it, until now I guess.

i used to have this awesome keyboard with huge deep keys, looked like it was from the early 90s.  Anyways, it had a springloaded space, which was awesome.  anubis had a similar one i think back in the day, maybe you remember me talking about this keyboard anus since ours were so similar?

Lmfao, you gotta f@#!ing love how Anubis comes in here, with his old ass 1990's looking piece of shit, and completely dominates every single roper that ever lived, including Mablak

model M is canon of keyboard beauty. same about IBM's thinkpads when it comes to laptops.
