    High density seat foam?

    I'm after some foam suitable for re-making the 'plywood plank' seat on my TRX. Is anyone aware of places that are able to supply something suitable?

    Any upholsterer will fix you up.You may need firm foam,rather than a softer foam.With a soft foam the air gets removed from the foam,making it harder due to sitting on the base,with firm foam it holds the shape longer.

    If you can get to a foam manufacturer they may have a few samples to try,then be cheeky and ask for any rejects lol.

    My guess is it will have to be industry grade heavy duty foam to distrbute the weight evenly..

    Yep my thoughts was if a foam manufacturer is handy to you,think Vita may also go under C-Tech,renamed a couple of years ago.
