Position seat back for lumbar support while paddling or upper back 

support while relaxing, the Phase 3 AirPro backrest will conform to 

you providing all day comfort.
Large comfort holes allow ventilation for air flow while providing 

cushioning to hard contact areas under the legs and along the spine.
Smaller holes on the backrest provide ventilation and increased 

support to the oblique muscles while the holes in the seat pad 

support the sit bones and provide drainage for water.
The backrest is lowered by pulling the nylon strap loop with  the           

       icon.  Push the gray web cleat lever to release the strap and 

raise the backrest. 
The padded seat back adjusts forward and back with straps located 

on either side of the paddler with the        icon. These straps are 

located above the thighbraces on touring models. Tighten the 

backrest by pulling forward on the nylon strap or loosen it by pulling 

on the black and silver finger pull loop. For good rotation while 

paddling it should not be too tight.
The leg lifter height is adjusted with the gray handle and 

corresponding gray web cleat release levers; to raise the height of 

the leg lifter gently shift one’s weight off of the leglifter while pulling 

the gray handle. To lower the leglifter press both gray web cleat 

levers simultaneously.
The mesh bag located in front of the central controls can be used 

to store the leg lifter handle, seat height adjustment strap, a water 

bottle or any other items you would like to keep in easy reach.
