In a preferred embodiment, a light weight telescoping suspension seat mechanism for a watercraft seat pedestal designed to fit into an existing or new seat pedestal. This suspension seat mechanism contains a combination of roller bearings to allow the seat pedestal to move linearly, but not rotationally. An expanding bushing mechanism secures the seat assembly rigidly to the seat pedestal and floor, and another bushing connects the mechanism to the seat. Each are easily adjusted to allow for easy installation and removal of the suspension seat mechanism. Located inside the telescoping mechanism is a suspension damper with air rebound spring allowing the individual to tailor the suspension stiffness to individual preference. This suspension mechanism provides damping force on the seat. The rebound spring responds to seat movement so as to return the seat to its original position.
