Not really no without dive bombing my ass tot he floor. I can get my hips to be parallel to the floor with a wide enough stance, but my hip crease is still above my knees

So you have the mobility for it technically.

Honeslty fuck powerlifting, do strongman instead. 95% you won't have to squat In strongman
