there's always a Thudbuster(tm) seatpost... I'd suggest the 'short' one for hybrids, the long one is more suitable to a hard tail mountain bike you'll be doing jumps and drops on.

the typical suspension seatposts suffer from twist and wobble. the seat moves back and forth like 10 degrees or more, extremely disconcerting when you're pedalling. the thudbusters use a parallelogram design, where the seat moves back and down (keeps the hip-to-pedal distance relatively constant). the only downside is, they are a bit heavy.
