LAWRENCE, MA, May 21, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- I-Tek Inc. announces the expansion of their Skwoosh line of gel cushions. Skwoosh already offers an extensive line of gel cushions including camping seats, stadium and bleacher seating and canoe and kayak cushions. Skwoosh has now made available a gel seat designed specifically for pilots and flight attendants.
Like the entire line of Skwoosh cushions, the pilot cushion reduces pressure on the ischial tuberosity, aka the "sitz" bones located at the lowest part of the pelvis, and helps maintain circulation and prevent numbness and discomfort in the legs and lower back. TekPad Ultra-Lite gel, a temperature stable and non-toxic composite, gives Skwoosh cushions their unique ability to conform to the contours of the body.
The Skwoosh pilot cushion was designed with the needs of aviation professionals in mind. It fits all aircraft seats - even those with a central harness attachment - and has a non-skid bottom so that the cushion stays in place throughout the flight. The Pilot's Seat has a low, ½" profile and can be easily stowed in a carry-on bag, briefcase or chart case. The pilot cushion can also be hung from a roll-on by loops attached to the side of the seat.
Ted Brother, CEO of I-Tek, the parent company of Skwoosh performance cushions, recently attended the 2009 Sun 'n Fun fly-in in Lakeland, Florida to introduce the pilot cushion to a group of receptive aviation industry wholesalers.
