Hand pain

Recently I've noticed a pain in my right (hopping) hand. The
pain is in the joint that connects the finger bone to the
hand on both my middle and ring fingers. Does anyone else
get this pain, or is there something wrong with my hopping
technique?

I am learning seat out stuff, and the KH seat is soooo thick
it is hard to hold tightly for long periods of time. Try
relaxing the hand when you can. I was thinking about
inventing a handle that goes under the seat on the left side
(and behind the seat post) to make it easier to hold tightly
for long periods of time.

'my hands' (http://the-clinic.nl/) are OK. Maybe drop your
question at Yuri Abrahams.

Are you using a Viscount seat? On my hands, those are the
only two fingers that fit under the front bumper, so they do
all the work.

Are you doing lots of seat out hopping? What kind of seat?
What kind of riding?

Your hand is more important than constant practice, so you
may need to give it a rest so it can heal.

Just a few weeks ago, I posted the same question. Some
people told me that it helps to wear glove, and that the
pain would probably go away. I tried a glove and the pain is
now gone. I think the pain is a result of not being used to
using a handle, just give it some time and it'll be fine.
