Kirk doing a real squat. The other guy, it was a strength feat. But no squat.

wah. byrd definitely hit parallel and you can't argue with that. kirk was undoubtedly the stronger individual but let's see you squat 5x your bodyweight even with a canvas suit, preds, and inzer blacks. could you even do triple?

I'm positive I could do triple.

But that's besides the point.

I checked the clip again a few times. And the lift isn't parallell. But it's definitely one of the more legit lifts done in APF IMO.

I did the same thing. It sure looks parallell to me. The thing is we are judging it from a slightly off angle front view. The only way to really be certian is to look at it from the side.

his femur is ABSOLUTELY parallel in that picture. it wasn't an IPF divebomb but it was definitely parallel.

unfortunately, femur position has nothing to do with being parallel in the APF/WPO rule book. There too it is about the hip crease and top of the leg at the knee.
