  Same, I don’t use exactly the same method. I use four fingers, two on each hand. I type around 92 wpm. The only reason is because I learned how to game on a keyboard before I learned how to functionally type. Since I was 5 I always have my start fingers hovering near WSAD
context: Is this how he normally types? I’d try to get him into using more fingers if that’s the case. >
  
  Get this man a copy of Mavis beacon teaches typing! >
  
  God the memories... >
  
  As someone who has been practicing online for months to learn touch typing and has only been able to reach 55wpm at my peak, I hate him. (/s obviously, not trying to be actually mean, but I mean, damn...) >
  
  That's okay, you can scale to 150+ easily and he's capped out for life. >
  
  Wow that right hand is working over time. >
  
  I knew someone who did pretty fast 4-finger typing while dancing a quarter between fingers like magicians do. 2 fingers is crazy.
  Someone get this kid Mavis Beacon. >
  
  Save the video for him for his "how I developed RSI you tube video when he's twenty something. That much repetitive movement is asking for trouble. >
  
  If he’s actually typing like that, at least tell him not to move his left hand that way. He can develop carpal tunnel. >
  
  I’m stationed in Japan, just came back and heard him down the hall. I want him to get more digits involved, hopefully in middle school he’ll take typing >
  
  Well, that’s cool >
  
  Imagine how fast he could be with all 10!
  78/2*10 = 390 wpm >
  
  But then he can’t be a doctor >
  
  They have illegible fonts for that >
  
  Dang. Little dude is hardcore >
  
  That's 1% of his true power. >
  
  I can do 59-69 extremely inconsistently with two fingers, and it's mostly up 60. Still 78 words is insane, my best is 71 I think. >
  
  I've always done full touch... But recently I have been relying more on shortcuts and less on my mouse... His joints are going to hurt him soon >
  
  There’s gotta be some other skills that this would apply too. That’s some really precise hand I coordination to incorrectly type that fast. >
  
  thats how i type XD >
  
  Sacrilege. But it works I guess. >
  
  Yeah I’m still stuck to 4 finger typing and I’ve got a pb at a little over 100. Can’t get higher though. Trying to add a second finger to my right hand is incredibly tough >
  
  I really hated those typing classes in elementary school but looking at kids typing today I’m happy it was part of our curriculum. >
  
  usually I'd say that's inefficient, but hey, whatever works for him >
  
  Leave some girls for the rest of us >
  
  I also used to type around 90-100 at that age with two fingers. Eventually I started using 4 fingers on the left and 1 on the right. I somehow type at 130ish (monkeytype so not that accurate of course) >
  
  What’s the website you used for this? >
  
  Not gonna lie 2 finger is kinda hard for fast typing especially when you are got used to 6-10 fingers type.
  My normal touch type wpm is 125-130, but with 2 fingers, only 60-65
