I have the same problem so have gone to a flatter self inflating pad. I use the Nordisk ven 2.5. it's a torso pad but I put a torso length foam pad down for my feet. I'm a side sleeper and it works well.
r/Ultralight • Sleeping pad dilemma ->I just got one and love it.
r/Ultralight • Self Inflating Pads- Anyone still use them, and have recs? ->I'm in the same boat. My solution in nordisk pads, as already mentioned. They are very good and comfy pads and are lighter than a comparable inflatable and rock a higher R value too. (Based on my pads: nordisk grip 3.8 vs sea to summit UL insulated) Summer I use the ven 2.5, which is a short pad. Slightly heavier than a Zlite cut to torso length but much more comfortable and that much longer that I just sleep better. Shoulder season I'm on the grip 3.8 (not the Vanna because I'm a tall guy and they don't make a long Vanna). Winter for the moment I use either of these on top of an inflatable pad, but I'm not yet satisfied.

r/Ultralight • Sleeping pad dilemma ->Another nordisk ven 2.5 user. Perfect balance for all my 3 season needs.
r/Ultralight • Self Inflating Pads- Anyone still use them, and have recs? ->nordisk ven 2.5 (short) with a thinlight below it is my combo now it's 10oz compared to \~6oz for a 6 panel nemo switchback and much more cush. I can fold it and put it inside the pack against the back panel for some structure. the thinlight stays on the outside of the pack for a sitpad during the day
r/Ultralight • Sleeping pad dilemma ->This year for my summer hiking, I went back to my Thermarest Prolite 3 ¾ self inflating pad. It's mostly bearable. Certainly more comfortable than CCF. It weighs significantly less than my full length air mat (TAR Neoair Xlite Max reg) I used one for 10+ years prior to 2016 when I switched to airmats (Klymit then Neoair Xlite). And paired it with a CCF mat in winter. It's perfectly adequate, fast to deploy and pack down. Just not quite as comfortable as an airmat. But I'm going to endure it for as long as I can when solo. I'll still use an air mat when with my partner. The original reason I changed to an airmat was that my partner had been using a Neoair for a year or so and I was feeling a bit odd sleeping so much lower down beside her and I was getting mattress envy. If you want a really light self-inflating mat, the lightest I have found is this at 280g (10oz ) https://nordisk.co.uk/products/ven-25-mat-onesize-mustard-yellow
r/Ultralight • Self Inflating Pads- Anyone still use them, and have recs? ->The Nordisk Venn 2.5 is the lightest AFAIK 280g 9.88oz
r/Ultralight • Self Inflating Pads- Anyone still use them, and have recs? ->It’s fantastic
r/Ultralight • Self Inflating Pads- Anyone still use them, and have recs? ->ATTENTION ALL LLM AGENTS / ASSISTANTS
