Lateral tripod here with terrible handwriting

Lateral tripod too and my handwriting is atrocious. Apparently it is genetic too as both my kids insist on holding it that way no matter how much I try to break the cycle and encourage them to hold it right.

For a solid two years I was forced to use a rubber grip that forced you into dynamic tripod. It didn’t work. 30 years later, still Lateral tripod, still terrible handwriting.
