Jeez, airhawk, gel pad and sheepskin!! I'm surprised you weren't hitting your head on low overpasses with all that chit underneath you. I guess this goes under the philosophy that if some is good, more must be better.

I'll bet that the gel pad over the Air Hawk negates the benefit of the Air Hawk.

I like mine.
I read a tip on inflating to just open the valve and let it sit for a minute, then close the valve. Thats all the air it needs, that may even be too much.

Like others have said, if its properly inflated it looks flat. 'butt" it works
