The keyboard itself is very shallow. In fact it's almost flush to the desk. It's quite a strange feeling, but it did mean a wrist rest wasn't necessary and my wrists were kept nice and straight – no funny angles. My weight was more on my arms leaving my fingers to float above the keys. I have a bad habit of putting my weight on my wrists, which causes a lot of my problems, so the Enermax is definitely a good influence on my typing.
