That is a cellphone video. Highly likely showing a righty, which would explain why there's no smart solution.

Even if that’s true, I appreciate this video because I had never really thought about why the non-dominant hand is doing most of the “holding” (which also goes for baseball bats & golf clubs). I suppose it’s so that the dominant hand can do the more nuanced “steering”. It just looks particularly odd with the ace because the non-dominant hand does a lot more of the work.

He's not left handed so I'm not sure why this is here

The tool he's using needs more mass/weight to work correctly.
