"They get heavy in carriage position but it looks cool when everybody does a horns up including the tubas"
My thoughts exactly. My body shape means that the lower bow of the horn hits my thigh in a way that to much marching gets very uncomfortable, due to bouncyness.
And I can't stand it when bands have sousas that stand there like idiots not moving while everyone else does cool horns up stuff. Our band does a lot of stuff to that extent, the tubas do more moves than any other section, including the drums. Much more fun to watch!
