Enhanced by Roho Cushion Technology
The average height from the Trochanter to the bottom of the Ischial Tuberosities was 7.5cm, and Roho have since discovered that this is the perfect envelopment depth if you could get a product to conform to it. By combining this envelopment with a mimicking of the effect of flotation in water, then you have the perfect pressure relief product. The AirLite does just that, using interconnected air cells to provide equal pressure across the entire cushion.
