	What I have found works well for me is basically ditching the entire air chamber (i.e. get rid of the bulb). When you have the air pocket I find the bag shifts way too much. However, I love the foam bead chamber for making foot pockets, it does a tremendous job of protecting your feet from the absolute assault they can take while throwing ends, loops etc. I shaped a piece of minicell to fit in the front of the bow and then glued the now empty air chamber to the foam, no more shifting. I now use the bead chamber much like I did before. I find that this has had great results for performance and comfort. I plan to post my Jackson outfitting tweaks on my blog soon. I do believe that Jackson Kayak makes some of the most comfortable outfitting on the market, but as with anything, it can always use some tweaking to get that perfect fit. Hope this helps!
