Tired of sitting on that hard plastic kayak seat all day
long? The Jackson Kayak Sweet Cheeks are your answer. The Sweet Cheeks
come in three different sizes to fit your specific needs; 100, 150 and
200. The 100 is the lowest profile, seating you the lowest in your
kayak, providing a great fit and a low center of gravity for ultimate
stability. The 200 is the highest, bringing your center of gravity
higher, in turn making your boat more edgy and aggressive, great for
playboaters wanting more leverage for big moves or for the river runner /
creeker looking to improve the response of their kayak. The 150 falls
in the middle of the two in profile and will provide a good balance
between stability and performance.
What makes Sweet
Cheeks so special? The Sweet Cheeks form fits around your rear end to
make a perfect bucket seat. No pressure points No more sliding around on
your seat.
The Sweet Cheeks allows your rear
end to form a butt imprint down deep, creating a bucket that surrounds
you in back, to the sides, and on both sides of your legs. Low spots are
filled in, high spots are taken down, and all of the areas that aren't
normally supported are suddenly supported. The Sweet Cheeks
offers a 100% comfortable wedge in the front, made by your legs and
crotch, that prevent slippage forward. The back of the seat meets up with the backband in the
exact right spot, so your tailbone is protected by foam, and the back of
your rear end is firmly supported with the rise behind you.
How does it
work? Got to love the bean bag concept for adjustability and firm
support. When you are getting into your kayak with the Sweet Cheeks for
the first time, you'll get in after you inflate it about 4 breaths
worth. When you sit on it the air will rush out of the tube, while the
beans rush around to find a place to go until the air is mostly out. To
"lock it in" for as long as you like your setup, simply suck the
remaining air out and "viola"! It is a perfectly locked down seat pad
that won't slip around on your seat. The bottom of the pad is made of
Velcro hoops and it stays firmly in place on the Velcro in your kayak.
Special set-ups: Want to be higher up in your boat- no problem. We added
more beans than necessary and made it oversized so the beans have a
place to go. Simply blow air in it, move the beans under your butt
cheeks, and suck most of the air out before you get in the boat. Get in,
wiggle around just a little to make it comfortable, suck the rest of
the air out and you will find yourself 1" higher. Want to be lower and
really have a deep bucket? Blow lots of air in it, get in and wiggle
around while the air is being forced out. When the air is out, lift your
butt off the seat while staying in the boat, blow two or three breaths
of air in, and sit down again, wiggling around to get the beans to
really form around you and move from under your butt. Do this as many
times as you want until you are the height you want to be (usually don't
need to do it more than three times unless you want to be completely on
the bottom. What does is cost you to have the best seat you have ever
had? $59.95. What is it worth? Priceless, of course.
