A better chair: The Strongback Chair

I've been using my REI folding camp chairs for years now and it seems they were just a piece of gear that gets used but not thought about very often. Home Skillet and I have been testing a relatively new chair on the market called the Strongback. We both share the opinion that it's a much sturdier feeling chair and edges out our old chairs in terms of comfort and stability. Where the chair really shines though is in its lower back support. I would hazard to guess that this is the only camp chair on the market with proper lower back support built in. Back support is important for me as I suffer from chronic back pain due to an old snowboarding injury from my young and stupid days (as opposed to my old and stupid days now). What else? Yes it has a beer holder and my beers back health seems to have improved as well.

So if you want some back support or just a sturdier chair in general, check out the Strong Back at their website Strongbackchair.com

If Bob likes it it must be good. I'm invisioning a monthly give-a-way.

Thks for the info. Watching the vid made my back feel better. I will try and hunt one down up here. My back is always sore after sitting in a camp chair.

This one looks like it is worth a try.

My camp chair gives me a headache, but I think it may be due to the fact it has TWO beer holders

This may seem like an odd request, but - could you show us a pic of the bottom and the rear....
Always looking for better camp equip.

Thanks~

Uhm...... no.

You guys must not be musicians. If you want music around the campfire, you need chairs without arm rests. Guitars, mandolins, dobros, banjos, and arm rests just don't work. Only the fiddlers can play with this chair you recommend.

Example:

Uhm...... no.



DIRTY DOG!!!!! That's not what I said!!!! Now you fix that. LMAO

Hey Silvertip47 -- Relax...it's OK...nobody's judging you. Everybody is different, and there's nothing wrong with that.

I don't want to see pics of DD's bottom or rear but I would like to see a pic the chair folded up.

Be very careful what you say on this forum. Dirty Dog will change it!!!! And I thought his screen name was because Diego liked to be dirty.....NOT!!!!!

Be very careful what you say on this forum. "

Or what you say in person...ask Brett13.

Hmmmm, maybe the moniker for Silvertip should be Bottom Dweller.

That would be better than ASSMAN
