better cockpit fit

I recently completed a pygmy coho and it turned out great. A friend is teaching me to roll and I dont fit the boat well. (too loose). I installed pygmys thigh braces but they are too small and my hips are too narrow for the fit I have laterally with 3/4 in. of foam. My friends white water kayak has a large molded thigh brace section that holds you very well. I am lookig for sources of materials or inserts or whatever to improve my fit. I live in northwest ohio. Thanks. pete wilson
