Most people seem to be able to drop down further with a front squat (as opposed to a back squat). Are you able to keep your weight back on your heels? Are your elbows up throughout?

Ian:
thanks for the reply.
Yes, i'm keeping the weight on my heels and my elbows are up throughout, as i'm balancing the db's on my shoulders with my upper arms perpendicular to my torso and elbows pointed forward.
In this position i'm able to squat with my upper legs well below parallel to the floor.
