New Asana: Variation of Shoulder-stand

For the second week running, we did this variation of shoulder-stand (close to the below picture) and with the instructor's assistance today, I experienced the full posture.


What we did it differently in class which is undoubtedly more challenging was that we were to have both knees pointing to the sky, together. Meaning that the body and legs were all in one straight line, like a vertical 'L' from the sides. Still far from achieving this pose, at most I can grab both feet with my hands, but my body and legs are at some angle. Also my knees are nowhere close to each other, picture the letter 'V'. 

Definitely one of the toughest shoulder-stand variation I have tried so far, but challenge accepted.
