Hey guys. I'm new here but have been looking into LL for a few months now and am pretty much set on saving up and doing it in maybe 2 or so years (I'm almost 19 so I've got lots of time).
Im around 167cm at night, and I want to add around 12cm, or 11 at a minimum to get to 178-179cm.
Here are my (rough) proportions:
Inseam (floor to crotch) - 80cm
Torso (crotch to clavicle) - 57.5cm
Clavicle to top of head - 29.5cm
And finally my armspan - 178cm.
So my arm span is around 11cm more than my height, which I'm happy about as I think that will be good for proportions.
Im more concerned about my torso height, I think it will be fine with good fitting clothes, but what do you guys think, are my leg proportions too long for my torso?
BTW I'm planning on getting 6cm distraction in femurs and then a follow 6cm distraction in tibias, but I'd like to know what you guys think of that too.
Any input is appreciated, thanks.

Thanks for the reply
Where I'm from the average height for men is just under 180cm lol, but as a baseline I wanted 6cm in each segment but if things are able to go smoothly I'm not opposed to getting an extra cm or two. Just lots of preparation to be done. Also pretty sure my plates are closed but even if they aren't they will surely be closed by the time I go for the surgery.
