What is the shoulder slope? "Run over rise", the length of the shoulder compared to the drop from neck point to shoulder edge? Or angle of drop?

shoulder length 6.25. length from where shoulder meets neck to top of circular cutout mid-chest 10.25. length from shoulder tip to same point 10.5. (that point chosen because it's on the same piece) I think that gives you enough info to do the geometry! but you can always change the shoulder slope with a shoulder pad, at least to go higher

How short is it? I have short hair too and this has no problem with me. My hair is around shoulder length though.

I was confused too. Apparently it's all about torso length. That's the measurement from your C7 vertebrae (the knobby protruding bone at the bottom of your neck) to the top of your hip bone (as measured on an imaginary line bisecting your spine). If you Google "backpack torso measurement" you'll find at least one excellent video on taking an accurate measurement.

It is very short, just enough to put over one shoulder, which slips off after only a few steps. You will need to modify it for over-the-head & shoulder use, or to strap it to your thigh.

I measured mine just now. It is actually only 58 inches while folded flat. The bars come off the top, and you use pins to hold them in place if you want. It is not too heavy to move around actually, all you have to do is stand it up, grab the top of the bars that run down vertically, and lift it up against your chest to move it around. Just keep your fingers out of the top bars running parallel. Stores great standing up against the wall.It is about 17 inches wide at the legs, and 7 inches thick. It is 88 inches long at it's fullest decline, but it will get shorter as you raise it up. So you really do not need to worry about this length. At the highest incline it is about 79 inches long.

From roughly 10-45 degrees, has 5 different elevations. Roughly equal increments. I mainly use the lowest two. I don't own any form of angle measurment tools so this is as specific I can get.

I'm 5'9" and when I stand in the pool I'ts about shoulder high. I have to reach a little if I"m helping one of my kids. Feel free to ask any more questions about it. We LOVE it!!

I think David A is correct. I just bought this and I am having trouble figuring out how to get a 15"+/- drop. If anyone has figured it out please let me know.

I believe the default is 6". If you see a # on the end of the item's description "-12" or "-24" for instance, that describes the black drop. However ... it would be best to check with the manufacturer ... I remember doublechecking either them, or with Apex.

Same with us here - we did the same thing. It only raises it up 1/2" inch from where it comes out of the wall, the good thing is you don't "lose height" with this arm - the thickness of your head will determine how far you drop down. I have a huge head hanging under it - I would check that thickness too to add to your equation. Hope this helps.

Mine has a slight slope (not noticeable). At the leg support end it is 19 1/2" and at the head end it is 19 3/4". In any case, it is an outstanding weight bench, plus great for ab workouts.

Aim for an ~10% ramp slope. For example, a 5' (60") long ramp would be sufficient for a single 6" step: rise/run = 6"/60" = 10% slope.

It's 14 and 1/2 inches at the top of the shoulders narrowing slightly to 14 inches at base of arm. Hope this helps

I thought the wide end at the lower back because it is wide....the narrow part fits between the shoulder blades better. But I agree either way works - its whatever you feel more comfortable with. Best part is when you raise your hands as far above your head (on the floor) as possible - great stretch....

The ends angle back toward the rider a bit, probably less than 2 inches. They also angle down toward the ground slightly, maybe 3/8 of an inch. I find the hand position to be very natural and comfortable plus the rise lets me sit more upright. I did have to add new cables because the old ones were for my straight bar and were not long enough. Really like these. I don't know that they would bend easy, seem really sturdy to me, but they are are steel so they are heavier than the alloy bar that came with my Fuji.

I am not sure exactly what you mean, but from the edge of the blue felt at the neck band to the shoulder edge is 7", the neck measures 1.5", and from the neck to the shoulder edge is 5.5". Hope this helps! It's a great form

Depends on where you are going to use it. If you are not going off paved or level surfaces. If so go with the shorter one. It should be about level with your shoulder. Try the 48"
