Impact absorbing seats or cushions

[Superpro]

Amazon has quite a few seat pads, just find the size that will fit your boat

Slow down, make shorter runs, got to smaller lakes and avoid rough water as best you can.

I saw Rick Clunn, on the Bass Pros Tv show talk about a trick he used to help his bad back. I tried to find the video but was unsuccessful. Basically he talked about that he sat on a bumper, not for the shock absorption, but so he could change the angle he sat and was able to use his legs to absorb the shock. I actually have tried this a bit running rough water. When I knew that hard hit was coming I would lift my butt up a bit a try to use my legs and it does help.

I've had three back surgeries and I used the Rick Clunn method of a docking bumper, it helped.

Is that proprietary? I thought those are made to go on all kinds of boats.

I have some lower back issues. I've tried several different things and have found that this works best for me.https://purple.com/seatcushions Ikeep a pair in the pickup so I just throw them in the boat when I unload it

what model cushion do you use ?

no other Bass Boat has them, you will find some multi-species boats with them

Gotcha, it said Vexus air wave pedestal so I thought maybe it was an exclusive deal.

Use a belt and strap a 6” inch piece of memory foam to her behind.. that way it’s good wherever she sits and you don’t have to worry about it blowing out of the boat.

Bandone,
I have stenosis L3-5 and already have a fusion on C3-4. I have been told that I will need back surgery to clean out L3-5 sooner than later, and I was hoping you could share with me the procedure done on your lower back and recovery time. If you could PM me, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thank you kindly, Frank.

My friend put 2 airwaves in his Ranger 522 D bass boat. I have 2 in my multi species boat and they are worth every penny, I’m very impressed with them.

A friend of mine did a great job mounting Airwaves in his Ranger 522D bass boat.

[grandbassslayer]

A lot cheaper than back surgery.....

Update on the seats, they are great, the bottoms anyways. The back portion on both seats will inflate but not hold air, they have a leak somewhere on both seats. Dowco/Nitro have not been helpful so far.

[Brewerbass]

I have the dowco seat in my new boat. Very comfortable, haven't been out in anything too rough yet though

The cruise air seats or standard seat?

[CigarBasser]

@erie660

Man those are sweet.. Wish that could be done with mine.. I do have a set of Ranger SRS seats I need to install but those Airwave’s are the chit..

[Dogfish_Jones]

Got 2 on order for 1400, will let you know in 6 weeks.

Did you get a set for a Nitro boat? If so do they come with the Nitro stitched in them?

[Brewerbass]

The cruise air seats or standard seat?

Cruise air. Mine stays inflated also

[grandbassslayer]

Yes, Nitro on the front, visually they look the same.
