TREKOLOGY - UL80 Ultralight Inflatable Backpacking Sleeping Pad

Appreciate the follow up. Yes, long wide is what I was considering. Definitely looking for an upgrade in comfort, so it sounds like you're satisfied with that. I tend to sleep all positions, and am hoping for all around comfort. Sometimes sleeping on the side your hip can flatten a pad. Hopefully, you're not noticing that. And as for crinkles, did you mean it was noisy when you were unfolding and inflating it was less so when using the pad? Hard to find that Goldilocks pad that does it all and doesn't cost a lot. I currently have the Trekology UL80, which is a good budget summer pad. A bit narrow, but fairly comfortable on your back and stomach.

I have a ul80. Very comfortable but as a woman I get cold even in summer on it

I currently have the Trekology UL80. Looking to upgrade for a higher R value sleeping pad that is still rather affordable. Would anyone recommend Paria or even the Flextail for their sleeping pad? Now that there are sales, I'll check any and all suggestions in order to find a good deal on the most recommended ones. Only requirement is I'd like to use it for backpacking so not being bulky when packed or too heavy would be great. Thanks for helping me in advance.

I use this exact setup, it works really well! I got a UL80 from Trekology and the Decathlon egg box pad and I'm toasty year round.

If you're not into that, I got a egg box style foam pad and a Trekology UL80, and that kept me warm in the mountains in December!

The Trekology one on Amazon is so much better. It's $40 and way way more comfortable. It's about 100 grams heavier, but if you're only going a couple of times a year it is the best way to go. TREKOLOGY UL80 Ultralight Inflatable Backpacking Sleeping Pad for Camping https://a.co/d/3EgrRWz

I have the kylmit insulated lite and several Trekology's. The Trekologys are much more comfortable. Either way, I sleep in a hammock now. Nothing beats the comfort. But when I take the kid(s) with me and I'm in a tent with them I go for the Trekologys everytime. Way more comfy.

I use a Trekology UL80 with a foam mat underneath, works a treat 👍

I bought it, I've slept on it for most of the past week and it's extremely warm and comfortable. I used to have an Exped Downmat Lite (R3.8 I think) which was possibly slightly more comfortable but this is wider and noticeably warmer - I've had to switch to using my (arguably not warm enough for the overnight temperatures) sleeping bag as a quilt because I was overheating which I only had to do in an extremely sunny August with the Exped. It packs down fairly small, is easy to inflate, deflate and pack up. My only complaints so far are that the curved head end makes it quite easy for my pillow to slide off because it's not the right shape - one corner falls off and the rest follows. I suspect this will be fixable with some silicone dots or a less cheap and nasty pillow but that's a job for when I get home. I also left it out of the dry bag on a very wet first day, with the valve open so there's obviously water trapped inside it, but that's entirely my own fault and hopefully it won't go too gross before I manage to dry it out. Incidentally if anyone has a killer camping pillow recommendation I will be very happy to take it!

We have some pricey ones for cold weather but I own 5 of Trekology UL80 (family). Car camping and backpacking it's freaking amazing and $40. We had one fail and the company replaced it.

I got the ul80 trekology sleeping pad and it is one of the best sleeps I have ever had bikepacking. Great value for money. I do not pay attention to r value for pads sleeping in Canada unless it's late fall or winter.
