Does this look like I could still do good form squats?

Fine. I have taken the old one down, the link will no longer work.
Here's one with the dimensions only. Deep squat.
I'm fine with squats being "harder", a small price to pay for 3 inches of height. However, I still want them to be "doable".
What do you think?

Can't do deep squats with regular stance with out tipping back to my ass. you'd have to modify the stance either wider legged or don't go down all the way ass to floor... maybe just 90 degree squat and lean your upper body forward to counter balance. furthermore, I'm totally ok with my new squat lol.

I used to do Crossfit and they were really strict with form. I suppose if it's really bad I could just ditch Crossfit forever and just do weight machines, but I'm going to have to think about it first. What was your femur to tibia ratio before surgery?

You could always lengthen that little bit less since you are average height to begin with and the LL won’t affect your biomechanics as much.
