While that might be true the people I am involved with are not very experienced paddlers.

The pain was clearly caused by the shape and hardness of the top of the seat.

All of the suggestions provided would fix the immediate problem by removing the homemade backrest, and would probably promote better posture.

Are there any other brand names which you have used you would recommend?

General discussion is good, but I was trying to get a specific recommendation.
