Mini cell foam

rothai · 2012-01-17 21:41:03

Hi all, Any1 got any old padding or dry cell foam. I need to pad out around my hips. Just getting into kayaking and man is it expensive getting all the kit and setting it up! Any help greatly appreciated to help a fellow paddler starting out. :D Thanks all

Use camping mat and duct tape if money's tight.

Thanks wet-paint, good thinking. I was also thinking of asking some swimming pools for old floats as well. I think they could work.
