I like it High because:
I don't do Whips
I like to feel part of the Bike, not like the Bike is underneath me, like I'm in the Bike
It's better for T-Bogs and the like
Most importantly, I like to sit down. I like to sit down when I'm not doing anything. I like to sit down when I'm riding back from somewhere and I'm tired out. I like to do sit down Fakies and Feebles.
I run about 4-5" of Post with a 9" Standover, just enough so I can pedal sat down.
High slim seat. But it's the Tree seat so it's more comfortable than most fat seats. Feels better, I can sit down easier, I can sit down and fakie, I can sit down and pedal, and it also looks amazing. Slammed seats look literally retarded.
Over a fist of post with an 8.25" standover.
Mines currently slammed only cause my Allen bolt on seat clamp is rusted on and rounded off cannot undo it to rise the seat cause I fell onto it off a jump an slammed it with my body weight haha !!! And since cannot get it off
Fist of post for me, cant be dealing with anal penetration angles too (however thats a whole new thread lol)
a fist full !

1 inch fat seat fill everyone in their sleep. I like it low enough that the seat doesnt hit the ground if i fall
I ride for my papou.
Cats got 9 lives I got four.
Like 4 fingers of post, I sit on my seat alot when im cruising so slammed isn't really an option unless i want my knees to be at my shoulders. Also my frame has a 8.25 stand over so the raised seat gives me a little more control in spins almost like a higher standover would. And slammed seats look like shit IMO
ive got like an inch... I want it a bit higher but it seems everytime i change the height of my seat the damn seat clamp breaks...
Im running a similar set up to you. Slammed seats do look shit & as you mentioned, knees in shoulders if you try to pedal lol.
mines low but like 3 fingers
Save a tree
Ride a Bike...... I am an environmentalist jk hahaha

WATCH MY NEW EDIT IM SO PROUD OF IT!!
Normally I run my 330 post down as far as I goes which normally gives me a fist and a half. But since I'm running a teirra and they have a stupid tapered seat post I'm running a normal post abit over the min insertion line think its about a fist
Also fat seats ftw. Slims suck
I'm a punk bmxer, I can't do it well so I do it loud.
I used to have a slammed seat for looks. I raised it after getting a fat seat and haven't bothered to change it. I mainly solo sesh so sometimes I sit and chill for a bit.

My Cult 2 Short
My seat still scrapes the ground a bit when I drop my bike. If I run 4 pegs, it barely doesn't scrape the ground, but I went back to 2 pegs.

Edited Date/Time:
I've started ride with a high seat only becuase having it low was giving me a sore back and my seat not the softest seat out
ride or die
i have a fat seat with my post around almost an inch or so. i dont like the way it looks when its high. ill probably start making it higher so my bag never hits my tire.
I dont say stupid things, just no one knows what im talking about.
As low as I can with still being able to pedal while sitting down. Cruising the streets all day sucks for me when I have to stand up the whole time.
Winter is over-rated
