This one may be a little "out there", but I am hoping someone has seen this problem, and has some ideas.
I have been introducing my wife to sledding. She loves getting out and riding, but we have a problem.
She has double jointed thumbs. Seriously... If I point my hand straight up, with fingers at 12:00, I can only pull my right thumb down to 9:00. Hers goes to about 6:30.
When we ride, she experiences extreme pain/fatigue on her throttle side. I have tried adjusting the angle of the throttle switch, and have made slight improvements, but still, she can only go about half an hour before needing to stop and turn around. She wants to do more.
Does anyone have any ideas for us?
I was thinking of taping her thumb so it does not bend back. Or maybe building some sort of brace to go over her glove and support the back of her thumb.
Thoughts?
