Quote from: 680 on June 23, 2014, 04:30:39 PMBtw, How much do you plan on lengthening ?
Here is how i see it, You can have length or good proportions but not both. Even if you have shorter legs and great sitting height, there will always be something to ruin our proportions. There is more to proportions than legs/torso (arm span,shoulder width,hand size,feet size,head size... and more)
You could probably go up to 6'0" but you need to sacrifice some proportions to do it, IMO there is a threshold but then again i am not a doctor.
Whats you'r arm span btw ?

I plan to do 4 inches to get to 6 foot, quad lengthening with Paley.  My armspan is pretty crappy: 173-174 cm. Which is why I was annoyed of the thought I don't have short legs. Short limbs are usually a package deal. I know a 10 cm difference seems bad, but I saw Mysteryman at old forum  who had a 10 cm difference (165 wingspan, 175 cm post LL height), and no one would be able to tell unless they were looking for it.

Without measuring I know I'm on the shorter side for my legs, It's just easy to tell when I look in the mirror or when I'm next to others. And it's probably overemphasized because my wingspan is nearly 4inches higher than my height.

Height:170cm (end of day)
Wingspan: ~180cm

Please read my post more carefully. I was referring to Mysteryman from old forum  who was 175 cm post LL.

I think my post was pretty clear, your English must be pretty weak.

Are you sure... It seems like you had really short legs.

I did.  I suppose that's how I could get away with lengthening 3 inches without looking weird.

My height is:165cm
And my legs from are 84 (or 104 from the hip)
So I am around 51%, is that normal? Do YOU have long/average/short legs?
