When you lift you leg, you’re raising your center of gravity. This gives a longer moment arm (distance from the pivot point, ie your foot on the ground and your CoG). That makes it a lot harder to maintain stability. Think of how a high truck is more likely to flip in a turn that a sports car that’s low to the ground.
