I'm working towards the straddle-up, but my back look mostly like a banana and my legs are no where near being straight. 

Do you have any suggestion on what to work on in order to improve this exercise? Other than generally getting stronger abs and more flexible hamstrings.

HI Patriq, the main problem is the link between passive and active mobility. the more your reach a solid 90° and 120° pancake the easier will be to compress at the top.
