1) You don't sit on your seat or pinch your seat while manualling.
2) You don't pinch your seat while doing x-ups.
3) The Haro seats are pretty much the biggest ones out there anymore; the only bigger seats that I can think of offhand are the Poverty and S&M seats.

i don't sit or pinch while i manual regularly

i'm talking about grabbing my seat with my legs, not my rear ham flaps, while i let go of the bars

can you tell me anything about pinching the seat while i let go of the bars during any trick i do?
