Title: Your advice (I Will do LL in 2022)
Post by: Scarface92 on December 29, 2021, 07:16:15 PM

Hi Guys, I wanted to know your opinion, so I am a 29 year old boy, I am 163 / 164cm tall and weight about 68 / 69kg, I will do LL in 2022, I would like to stretch the tibia;
If you tell me what I need to measure apart from the height that I have already written and the wingspan which is 173cm, I will report all the measurements, I would like to attach a photo but I don't know how to load it?  thanks for your help.

You should measure your tibia and femur lengths.

thanks for the advice, I measured approximately with the tape measure, tibia 36/37cm, femur 42/43cm, but it is not a precise measure in my opinion, however to upload a photo how can I do? thank you
