hello, i've made a few kind of semi recumbent cruisers (posted a few in the alt bike section) and now i'm thinking about trying full on recumbent. pretty much just to try making something really low. so far i have... well.... a really nice fork (i think. won it off ebay and haven't got it yet), so i'm just kind of looking at designs and working out the idea.

anyway, i've noticed some of the really serious looking recumbents have what looks like a children's snowboard on them for a seat.

i know that's not what it is, but i'm wondering if it's been considered or done. i don't know how it would be softened or melted or whatever (maybe cut and fiberglass back together?) to help reshape it, if it needed altering, but it just looks doable.

what do y'all think? and thanks.
