I find the same problem with my standard Europa cushions. I was considering 
using
confor foam and found this useful link:

In the end I found that for me (at 6') the problem is down to the lack of thigh
support, resulting in all my weight being supported through my bottom. I 
discovered
that placing a reasonably supportive standard cushion under my thighs (but
not under my bottom) helped immensely. It allows my weight to be distributed
over a larger area. I now need to replace my standard Europa cushions with
something that provides the same solution.

I've attached some pictures from Fred Klein's solution. The "Rolls Royce" of 
seats
in my opinion. You can see the additional thigh support he has.

Hope this helps.
