Considering your health limitations, are you at a higher risk of passing out, Blackout or low blood sugar periods? If that's a consideration, I would recommend the JX3 as it will provide more support and structure if you find yourself in a bad spot.

Good point! Yes, all of the above are risks I have to manage. Even more, I wear two medical devices on me at all times. I went to the mobile hunters expo in Kzoo on Saturday and tried a bunch. They all come really close or in direct contact with at least one of them. The JX3 was NOT at the event :( I asked a guy and he said they tried really hard but the owner refuses to do expos for some reason. Another guy offered to demo them at no cost for people to try and that was refused as well. Pretty sure I'm going to have to use it though if I want to saddle hunt.

On a positive note, my son and I got to meet Dan Infalt :)

Haha I don’t know how I missed that it was in wrong section. Went to find it in classifieds and just assumed I dreamt it.

Doesn’t say much for the new feller, but sure doesn’t say much for me either. Thanks for rounding it up.

I'm not sure where you're at but someone did bring one to the spring meet up. If you're nearby maybe he would let you test drive it. I spoke with @DanO from Eastern Woods Outdoors ( ewo) in Lapeer I believe. Over there anyway and he mentioned he had 15 or 20 saddles for people to try in store. We didn't discuss the Jx3 specifically but he is a super cool guy, maybe you can reach out to him

To find the classifieds either click the 3 bars for menu in the top left and then click forums or just click the saddle hunter logo next to them, also top left. It's almost at the bottom. Also FYI, the rules are you are supposed to be a paid member to list but anyone can buy. You'll just need to PM instead of replying in the ad ( click their name and then click start conversation)

That would be me... I am in southeast Michigan and of course I would let you try it out. I also have a Cruiser XC.

I'm going to stay away from that one. Brand new user, as of Sunday, with just one post. Blackbeard is the screen name, I think he wants to pirate some quick cash from someone here...
