Title: My thoughts on this pad
Review: HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT! I have problems with pain in my left buttock when kayaking for 30 min or longer. The pain starts in the sits bones (the bones that connect the leg and hip) and becomes more intense as I continue to kayak. Sometimes, the pain "shoots" down to left my knee, reminescent of "sciatica". I thought this pad would be a "cheap" and easy to pack remedy for my problem. The pad did nothing for my pain, in fact, my Thermarest pad does a better job. I ended up making my own pad from a yoga matt which works better than anything I've tried. Just cut the yoga matt in strips so that the resulting pads cover all but the sits bones. I made a pile of 4 strips (front, back, and sides) and fit them into a mesh bag (one with a zipper intended for laundering delicate items such as stockings). I sewed around the pads so they wouldn't move around. Works very nicely and is cheap! My advice, don't buy the SKWOOSH!
