Surf To Summit Seat Buyers GuideGet A Quality Seat For Your Sit On Top KayakSurf to Summit seats on this page employ a patented technology that compresses industrial grade fabric, polyethelene sheet, and foam into a integral unit. The result is a seat that provides extreme comfort and outstanding durability. We have sold Surf to Summit accessories since we first started our business. We have used them ourselves in our rental kayaks and got years of use from them in the rental environment. The GTS series seats are the top of the line, and employ a 6 point adjustment system that is easily adjusted to provide maximum comfort and convenience. These seats also feature a removable pack. There are packs for fishing, touring, and fun. The dry bag pack will keep cell phones, GPS units, and binoculars dry. There is a hydration pack that has a handy dispenser tube for water when you need it. The extra packs can be purchased separately. You will see an option in the shopping cart that asks you to select a seat connector option. If you have an old style Ocean Kayak that has straps that connect to the seat select the Plastic Buckles Option. If you have a fairly new Ocean, or other manufacturers kayak, you should select the Brass Connectors option. |
