What Allen said. The cheap and easy way to find out if this will help you is to put a paddle float under your knees and inflate it enough to raise the knees two or three inches. If this helps your problem set up your cockpit accordingly.

I made my own minicell foam seat. It reaches to just before my knees and starts at 3/8 inch tall at my butt to three inches at the front. Ummm, comfy.
