I have been reading posts about the X-Terra tipping over, so, when I got my new one today I got out my trusty heat gun and, with the rear rod attached to just the stand, I proceeded to gently heat the legs while pushing down on the stand and shaped the legs like this. You can't make it tip over now! I also heated the cuff too and squeezed it together to fit my forearm (it was closer to fitting my thigh before).
