I've been looking for the lightest inflatable pad on the market and not counting the Uberlite (doesn't look comfortable at all)it seems the Torsolite is the winner. Any other options that I might have missed?

I stick with the torsolite for a quality, comfortable inflatable pad. Just don't roll off!

I seem to remember an article out there somewhere concerning doing surgery on a thermarest pad. But I don't remember how much of a savings it accomplished. Anyone else remember that one?

Sigh……I seem to be coming to the cold (no pun intended) reality that I'll be using a foam pad on my XUL attempts this spring. Not that that is a big deal, I started out in 1988 w/ a ridgerest. I'll just have to get back in the groove of picking "softer" spots to crash in.

Steve, thanks I actually have one of these pads. I guess I was hoping to not have to give up my inflatable to get to where I want to be. It's funny how in our quest to get as light as possible we give up some things so easily, and other we hold onto as tightly as we can. I'm actually giving consideration to a trimmed down 1/8" thinlight pad. Until I get around to that I will probably use the nitelight.
