You say this as if there is something wrong with the stance. I thought he looked pretty sharp in it. I used the same exact "more relaxed scissors" type stance from around '93 to '04, and really liked it alot. If I go back to doing HS Varsity again next year, I think I will re-visit that stance.
It puts much less strain on the back, legs, and neck area than does the traditional, more upright scissors.
I've heard this stance referred to as "the Tank" before by some pro school grads. I never thought that sounded so good, so I never adopted that description.
