Note that objects on ground rests on 3-points. When placing on ground, it touches down on 1-point, then leans over and touches 2nd contact-point. It then rotates on axis connecting these points until 3rd contact-points touches down and is then stable.
NEVER, EVER use pin-type front-stand without having bike up on rear-stand first. That's to maintain 3 contact-points and stability. Using front pin stand has only one contact point, and rear-tyre is only one contact point for 2-total. Bike will want to rotate on axis between pin contact and rear tyre's contact point on ground until a 3rd contact point is touching, typically handlebar.
Unless you need to remove service triple-T bearings or forks, I typically prefer under-fork-tips front stand. More stable without need to put rear on stand 1st.
