Try it and keep the video camera recording. Then post it up if you pass out.

I've seen it happen numerous of times...When the average person stands straight, they don't naturally lock their knees or fully flex their quads..When u lock ur knees, its like trying to push ur knees back flat against a wall, by flexing ur quads as long as u can... But anyways, since this whole knee convo is

, I went out and tried clutching the stand-ups last night...man, kinda scary but getting used to it...Just gotta keep working at it...tried both feet on the front pegs, still didn't feel good...

But I still want to learn how to do a regular stand-up w/both feet on the front pegs instead of the rear...that just seems so hard an uncomfortable but Im working on it....

Damn, was no one in ROTC, or any armed forces where they had to stand for cermonie's or inspections? Locking ur knees cuts off the blood flow....Alot of people at weddings pass out the same way...I can't find a good right up explaining why it happens but I've seen a couple of threads here and there..Read this:

Re: Left foot on rear peg is so much EASIER!!!

I must admit, clutching it up is much easier....I went out and practiced a little yesterday. I tried clutching it up in second....got the hang of it and it became pretty easy...I even started clutching it up in third and rode it for a half a mile or so. Now I'm like, the hell w/bouncing and rolling, its all clutches from hear on out. I tried standin w/both feet on front pegs but wasn't as successful. I'll get it sooner or later...
