Before I figured out my seat back, parachute, head rest configurations,
the head rest in my LAK-17a was uncomfortable for me. In the short term
I made a head rest by sewing together two micro fiber cloths on three
sides, with a flap on the open end like an inexpensive sandwich bag. I
stuffed with the amount of foam necessary, folded in the flap, threaded
shoe laces through it, and tied it to my seat back. It worked very well
until I got my thicker ram air parachute and then I reinstalled the
factory head rest.

It doesn't have to be pretty, only functional.

I have a Discus B without a headrest. I would like to fabricate one but I don't want to re-invent the wheel. Has anyone done this? If so, are any pictures available so I can shamelessly copy it? Or, if there are any factory headrests for later models a picture or two of them would be very helpful. I would assume they would attach to the seat back.

Thanks!
