  • "I just did a quick CAD sketch to understand how it all moves. I think the tension of the canvas caused by you sitting in it will stop the chair collapsing backwards. Also the legs are spread wide enough that your center of gravity (ass) will remain inside them.Yes you can probably fall out of it if you try hard enough but the same could be said about most chairs.Honestly this looks like a heap of fun to sit in. Its probably even more fun to watch someone sit in it for the 1st time.Hats off to Dan Svarth!"
