Hello everyone ;

i have a interesting question today."What is your indexfinger length?" I saw ; Most of Sub10 cubers have long Fingers :) Such as Mats Valk , Kevin Hays , Seung Boem Cho etc.
if you like , you can send your indexfinger length , so it can help some cubers for choosing 50mm or 55mm or 57mm .

mine is about 8cm

Left index: 7.9cm
Right index: 7.6cm

21.6cm from end of left thumb to end of left little finger.
21.8cm from end of right thumb to end of right little finger.
Interesting how my left index is longer, but I can span a greater distance with my right hand.
Or maybe it's because the only 30cm ruler I have bends and those last two measurements were inaccurate.

It makes more sense to measure from the knuckle, since not only is it clear where the point to measure from is, but that is also the pivot point of the finger, giving a clear measurement of finger length. Just make your finger straight but bent at the knuckle a little bit to make it clear where the point is.

My index finger is 9.5cm this way.
