Nobody likes getting a sore bum when cycling. The Air Seat is made with that fact in mind, as it adds what is described as a “full-floating” coil suspension system to existing saddles.

Save your spine: get a parallelogram-hinge shock-seatpost.
The other brand that was making them ( the “tricky dick” ) was using a spring, instead of elastomers, & I’d read that the spring would be wrecked whenever the thing was bottom’d out.
They’re gone, now, so those reviews apparently were indicative of a fundamental engineering problem with that alternative.
Definitely, though, save your spine, & get one of those parallelogram-hinge things.
When you hit a bump, your arms don’t magically-shorten, they act as pivots, right?
Your butt needs to go both back & down, in relation to the normal-seat-location.
It’s a basic geometric fact.
And with you being kinder to your spine, your years-being-able-to-ride can be extended, noticeably.
