completely numb since I foamed the hips of my kayak.<<


Do you really need more foam? Or is your leg going to sleep because you
foamed your hips and made it a bit too tight?  Sounds like you need some
Dragonskin.  It's a sanding device that allows you to shape the foam.

Remember the tighter you make the seat and hips in your boat, the less your
butt wants to be in there.
