How do you place boards?

[longarms]

I've seen a few vids of boards balanced on the chest, read where Rojas bands his to his body, and where someone stuffs them under his shirt. I suspect that some have a partner hold them in place.
I fear that if I put the boards on my chest, I will crush them as my pectoral muscles contract...
Sorry... got carried away there.

Do you have separate 2,3 & 4 board setups?
I guess you could use stick-on velcro to put them together for the multiple board use. (I guess I could velcro them to my chest, yea, that's it, that's the ticket)
Does everyone use 2x4s? I was thinking a 2x6 (or 8) on the bottom might keep them stable.

I'm not doing them now, but will definately use them in the future.

Thanks for your responses, they are all appreciated. Like I said, I don't have any personal exposure to using boards.

Nate has velcro straps that he puts around the boards...this way he can add/remove boards to it.

I just lay the board on my ribcage and my boobs hold them in place just nicely...doesn't seem to be an issue for me. Nate has been putting them under his shirt.

Do I need to wear a Manzierre to use the Nonerz method?

Can we get a picture of this? I'm not sure I quite understand the technique...

We use 2x6s and industrial strength velcro to adjust from a 1 board up to a 5 board (so we only have 5 boards total instead of 15). Just lay them on the chest - if you don't lean to one side they should stay on you.

I second that.

In one thread she was explaining how her boobs would bounce around too much if she worked out topless. Now she tells us how they hold the boards just perfectly. I really hope you can get some videos posted, some of us are confused.
