I don't know how tight straps are on an SOT surfski, but I don't think they would need to be too tight in an enclosed kayak. Definitely something to consider.
re: rotation. I think most seats rotate under the center of gravity of the paddler (legs extended out front moving the CG far forward, but feet on the pegs lessening this...) most pivots seem under the center of the seat.
Has anyone tried pivoting at a different spot, more forward or back? And is circular rotation best, or would a cam of some sort be better?
I don't have tight hip braces, in fact I don't have any hip braces at all, so rotation is constricted only by the coefficient of bum and my back support.

: Foot straps are a good idea on a SOT like a ski, not a great idea
: in a closed kayak, too big a risk of entrapment.
