Yep, the trick is just enough to get the arse bones off the surface. Same with lightweight camping mats (hip bones off the deck).

There anoyingly good; I thought getting my seat done by a highlt recomended amoung the long distance touring blokes would remove the need for an Air Hawk, nope. Still got numb bum, especially around my inner and upper thighs. That's why I fit mine with the wider section on the front of the seat. I liked them so much I bought one for my terminally ill Mum for her lounge room chair to avoid pressure points. They sell a lot to Nursing Homes.

I’ve enjoyed freedom from numb bum, for many years, courtesy of a gel pad inserted into the seat foam.
500+mile days with not a trace of numbness.

Well it’s turned into a bit of a fizzer, so far. Been ordered for two weeks, but no delivery.
Rang them and was told they’d been waiting for a new shipment of covers, and they were expecting them the next day
Got all excited when I got a text to say it was being delivered last Thursday….. good timing because I’m back at work Sunday arvo.
But, no delivery even though I was looking out for the postie, which didn’t help.
Mind you, the postie looked suspiciously comfy as he rode his e-trike past my house
My Mrs works in aged care, she reckons they’re great for old people … still questioning if she was having a crack at me
