At OH0V, we have used these for nearly 7 years now:
http://www.citylook.info/fi/ortopedisk-sittkudde.html
Currently, we have only two.
Reading this thread makes me think we need to buy a few more.
The original reason to buy these was the actual chairs we have are not
exactly made for long and nonmoving on-chair pediods.
With these cushions, the overall sitting performance increases drastically
for the second half of the 48 hour contests.
For the latter 24 hours, I consider this a very profitable low cost
investment.
