This is Eric B. the Tarptent fanboy, back after a long time of misplacing my UN and PW. (Don’t even ask.)

I’m now 82 and still a confirmed gear head and YouTube backpacking channel hound. Plus I still ski my buns off at great western resorts.

SO… my question: Is the British (I think) Flextail/Zero RO5 winter mattress any good?

(I’ll ask on winter hiking too but at this time of year who would view that forum?)

Welcome back Eric. I’m sure I’m not the only one that noticed your absence.

I hope your modified Moment has been getting some use.

Welcome back, Eric! And yes: Tarptent Notch Li solo is still best in class.
