In a reply to my recent poll I was asked to feature layouts on the more classic end of the spectrum more often. Fortunately, bbrafkr took his dynamis to the recent Tokyo meetup, and it seems this 65% keyboard with an integrated trackball has been picked up by the community after the event despite being published months ago.

Specs

  • 65%-ish layout
  • upgradable from sandwich to gasket mounted case.
  • integrated 34mm trackball
  • rich layout options (split backspace, split left and right shift, split space and ISO enter support)
  • QMK, VIA, remap
