The problem that I have with a footrest is that it induces a curve into your spine when you raise your leg. This is not ergonomic and can create back problems.
Many classical guitarists have come to understand this and now avoid the footrest. The better solution is to use guitar supports.
I use three:
Alexandra Whittingham uses the Guitarlift. I heard that it's more stable than the Ergoplays.
- Gitano for portability
- Ergoplay for highest stability
- Dynarette (XL) for when I visit guitar shops and luthiers
So does Stephanie Jones and yes they are very stable
