[QUAD-L] Cushion question

2016-07-29 Thread Larry Willis
Hey guys. I am trying to get a new chair and cushion. My advisor wants me to 
get a new style cushion by Ride Designs. Any of you familiar with it? Take a 
look at ridedesigns.com and tell me what you think. I value your opinion. I 
currently use a roho. Thanks, Larry WILLIS
