    I've heard of them but haven't seen any of their gear yet.

    the single layer @ 49" seems extremely narrow to me. If the double layer is the same I would not be interested. I like width.
    I may be slow... But I sure am gimpy.

    I've used 48" before...it's ok. Not as comfortable for me as 60", but still not bad.

    Guess that means the same width. I have to agree that I like the 60 inches.

    It looks like he's exploring some interesting directions, I'll have to keep an eye on it. Thanks for the link.
