Seating – Sliding Seat

New Sliding Seat with Backrest or Backband
Eddyline has designed a new sliding seat for 2009. It is available in the Equinox, Journey, Fathom and Fathom LV.

The padded seat pan is deeper, with more thigh support. No longer attached to the cockpit rim, the seat has 3 inches of adjustment forward and back allowing the paddler to change position relative to the thigh pads for the best fit.

It is available with a new, ergonomic hard backrest with a comfortable pad (Equinox and Journey) or a redesigned backband with a vertical position lock for enhanced back support (Fathom and Fathom LV). They are easily interchangeable.

The new backrest or backband has a locking knob in the rear for setting the vertical position and an easy to reach cleat adjustment at the right side for the forward and back positioning. They also fold forward and are spring loaded to stay in the upright position.

This new system is comfortable for extended paddling trips and very easy to adjust to vary your seating position.

Seating – Fixed Seat

Backrest
Eddyline seats, seatbacks and back bands are designed to provide lots of adjustability for a custom fit. We advise each owner to take some time initially to make adjustments to the cockpit for their personal comfort.

The seatback is hinged at the connection to the seat, which allows it to be folded forward for ease of loading and for you to adjust it forward or back to suit your preferred paddling position. It has three height positions as well. The seatback and seat sides are padded with nylon covered foam for additional comfort and support.

Our optional ‘Backfloat’ is an inflatable device which also functions as a paddle float and adds an additional level of adjustment to the back rest.

Backband
The padded optional backband (standard in the Fathom and Fathom LV) encourages a more upright paddling position and uses hardware and strapping that is completely interchangeable with the backrest.

Seatbottom Pad
The seat bottom pad is designed to be attractive, comfortable and extremely easy to install, remove for cleaning, or replace. Installation in an older model that does not have one is also a simple operation.
