I thought TT bars are supposed to be level?

Also, it looks like the saddle is going into his butt. Looks comfortable.

They're supposed to be. He is probably just not flexible enough.

That's Floyd Landis, TDF winner and all. It is common to see time trialist scooted forward like that for more power because the UCI restricts how far forward saddles are allowed to be.

Some saddles are marketed time trial specific with extra padding on the nose for such purpose.

'sides Superman style debuted in the mid-90s.

back in the late 80s, meanwhile, Lemond had his aero bars jacked up but he was on a funnybike so arms were only a little above horizontal

Landis's "Praying Mantis" vs. Obree's "Superman"

Before the "Superman" position, Obree broke Moser's long standing hour record with a crouch:

the idea was that Landis had his praying mantis position. The thread is about a praying mantis. :(
