#128632 - 02/11/10 02:57 PM Re: Inflatable vs Foam [Re: Boomer]
finallyME member Registered: 09/24/07 Posts: 2710 Loc: Utah	I have mostly used foam. It didn't bother me until I got into my mid 20's. That is what drove me to hammocks. But, I just bought (two days ago) a BA insulated pad. I am going to use it this weekend. I sleep on my side, and I can't do that comfortably with 3 foam pads stacked on top of each other. _________________________ I've taken a vow of poverty. To annoy me, send money.
