At which shutter speed does the mirror slap from a Hasseblabec irrelevant for handheld photography?

Hasselblad asks for a unique way of handholding, which I inexperienced hands can lead to giving the body too much "freedom" of movement when releasing shutter. I have hard time switching back to it as it feels just plain odd after other systems. As it is not my only camera, it doesn't get the use I think it needs to make the best out of it.

I much prefer motorised (ELX) body instead of plain 500, as it is heavier, allows for tighter cradling, works really well with left hand grip made for it (so shutter release is from grip side) and with 80 lens 1/60 is fine, might be able to pull of 1/30.
