can we get a video of your faulds moving please... do they fold upwards when you raise your knee

Short answer: yes, they do move when I raise my knee.

Longer answer: yes, but the faulds mostly just cover my stomach. They get a bit caught on my lance stops (large ridge on the upper thigh) regardless. Tassets and maille skirt are very necessary to cover the hip area with this configuration.
