    ...because the older I get, the more likely I will need to be in a sitting position. It is also better on my wrists (at 6'4"). At home I play roughly 90% of the time seated on a stool. Location play is usually just the opposite. I have tried adjusting my stance, but always seem to fall into the same old trap and lean on the lockdown bar. I do need to work on that more. I also believe that I play better standing up...maybe because I'm able to see more of the playfield better. I just can't play standing for hours on end or the wrists begin to hurt.

    Quoted from NoSkills:

    Can someone post a photo of them playing on a stool? I’ve tried but my legs are always in the way or if I scoot back I have to lean so far forwards it hurts my back. Maybe my arms are short in comparison to my legs or something lol

    Got to man-spread those legs!! Or sit at the edge the stool with your legs tucked somewhat under the machine. Those are the only 2 ways that work for me. Some people just can't get comfortable using stools, though.
