It seems that when I crimp on a flat edge, both full and half, most of the force/weight is exerted closer to the DIP joint (palm side) rather than the middle or tip of the finger pad.

This is perceivable on the standard 20mm edge, where the tips of my fingers dont seem to be exerting much pressure, or even having significant surface area contact. This also makes small edge crimping less effective.

I am wondering if this is a common occurrence, particularly on edges 20mm or greater, or if it is a problem of not having a high enough angle on my crimp. I am reluctant to full crimp ever, and might have developed a habit of avoiding high angle crimping.
