    This is good advice. I do the same thing. Another thing I do sometimes is start with the Airhawk with more inflation and then periodically let more air out. It definitely works the best with very little inflation.

    I've been a fan of AirHawk for years and just finished 3800 mile trip with one on my F3L. Butt.....I have sore butt, first time ever with a 'Hawk. I know the secret of little air but I don't know why it really didn't do the trick for my trip. I did try skipping it between fill-ups and it somewhat worked I guess. I actually found this thread while searching for an aftermarket seat option!
    2020 F3L; gone but not forgotten are all the good miles!
