Foolestroupe:"I remember several years ago - think I even posted the info here - about a woman who has specialised in "Angle style playing " music on and English - she had added straps". RE:I can't identify the player, there are some English players of course who do pretty well copying the "Anglo style", but the point still is that noone can get *the same control* using the traditional English handle due to less stability. The trad English "wrist straps" do not help much since if set tight (to assist both on pull and push) they lock the hand in an awkward hyperextended position and if set looser they can only assist a little on pull.To get things right there must be a support for the wrist 20-40mm high combined with a strap, or possibly a hard bow, fixating the back of the hand by a kind of "cuff" stabilizing the connection similar to the combination of hand-bar and hand-strap of the trad Anglo/Duet handle.
