I am a crappy belayer
Try the Beal Birdie. The cam isn’t quite as touchy as the gri gri. But it pays out more similarly to an ATC.

How to use the Edelrid Pinch as a lefty
From using the Lifeguard and the Beal thing, I think not leaving any slack inbetween the brake hand and the device makes it easier. Edit: Beal Birdie

Brake Assisted Belay devices
The Beal Birdie is a BABD that reduces this rope curling effect. It operates like a Grigri, but with a straight rope path and steel inserts (reduces Al smear on ropes). Less expensive than a Grigri, too.
