Emirates Flight - San Francisco to Joberg

Booked my flight today on Emirates. $1,501 round trip economy. I may upgrade.
Sept through October 2026.

Pics of some examples.

Sadly, I have come to the conclusion that Canadians and Europeans...

What is the best all around recoil pad and why?

I've been a big fan of Pachmeyr Decelerator for a long time, maybe long enough to be overlooking something better? I especially like the model with the section of smooth plastic at the very top of the pad that ensures against rubber snagging on clothing.
I am also really impressed with the recoil suppression ability of the leather slip over pads with the velcro closure, as sold by Kevins or I think Galco. The insert inside is actually a covered gel type, soft recoiling substance. Works great...
