I have the flexibility issue you talk about, and to mitigate that I do a kind of chongo mount but from a drop knee position. The rotation of the heap feels much easier for me.
cheers to all non-flexible guys out there! why more people don't use/show diagonal stand mount!? i did it today for the first time with reverse (belly up) version, felt very natural. Common mouts - i hardly can pull them off them on the ground!
This is a very hard mount to do on long lines and rodeo lines. If it works for you great, but I found much greater success working on my flexibility to try the other mounts.
Thanks for mentioning the problem of meniscus. I suppose it is widespread problem among slackers, especially who spent some time in this sport. Are there any tips on how to improve this flexibility (mobility?) needed for safe sit/chongo mounts? Some random daily stretching did not solve the problem for me: sit mount from the solid ground still seems impossible. And it seems that all who can do it managed it from very beginning. Tore my meniscus while bouncing in chongo position some years ago. Then mastered sofa-mount: needs more skill maybe, but much more friendly to the knee joints.
One way you could try is to implement deep squats (the position in which some cultures are eating) into your everyday life. If flexibility really does not improve it is probably best to stay with your sofa-mount.

Thanks for your input - do you have a video showing the exact mount you mean?

Супер!🎉
Is sit mount safer for knees then chongo?
Chongo seems to be the most dangerous one for the knees.
