So my Wave's seatpads are finally giving me blue-butt. Any idea on where to get inexpensive replacements or better yet, material I could use to make new ones?

TIA

The pads are just an EVA foam. It's also used as foot pads on windsurfers and kite boards, and I've seen it used on ski boat platforms. There are quite a few places out there that sell it by the square foot. We get it from a place called NSI. http://www.northshoreinc.com/

There are some patterns that might look cool on the Wave.

on ebay i've found some self adhesive kayak seat pads. Item number: 360039766868. what do you think? they look comfortable. one for each side as a test then get a second pair if it works well. i'm also considering mounting the adjustable hobie kayak seats. i could use the back support.

I use the 3M 20272 "Scotch Grip" contact cement for deck pads on my windsurfers.

The part number for the Wave deck pads is 38010061. That's a Light Blue Pad. They're $24.95 each. The early Purple pad is no longer available.
