Cupped Vulcan is an under-swing<\/a> chopstick grip that resembles a cupped hand. It is the most intricate grip we have examined so far. While we recorded Cupped Vulcan on day one of marcosticks.org, we had not been able to satisfactorily explain how it worked, and why it worked. It was so alien from the traditional Standard Grip<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We had to wait until after we analyzed and published 18 alternative grips<\/a>, to tackle this complex grip with multi-faceted finger dynamics. Only after we built enough knowledge about different grips, understood how they worked, and mapped out how they related to one another, were we able to unlock the mystery of this Cupped Vulcan grip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
