Chris,

I'm not sure if this constitutes sitting up in your mind or not, but if you slide on your back and then after coming to a stop you bend from the waist so that you back is no longer on the ground but your legs are, this is legal. Now, any further movement from there is illegal. Getting up on one knee. Even putting the ball down and then standing up, if you are the first to touch the ball, thats a travel. Although, I'm not sure of the reasoning behind this last one. Any ideas?

Thanks!
Randall
