The opinion of Aventure Nordique
The Thinlight Foam Pad 1/8" - Rolled by Gossamer is a foam pad that is only 0.3 centimeters thick, making it ultra-lightweight and minimalist. This model can be rolled up for storage and transport.
Its primary use is to protect your inflatable or self-inflating mattress, which can be punctured when camping. By placing the Thinlight Foam Pad 1/8" underneath, you protect your mattress from accidental punctures. With an estimated R-value of 0.5, you also add a layer of insulation.
The Thinlight Foam Pad 1/8" can have many uses:
- Emergency mattress, if your inflatable mattress fails during a hike.
- Additional insulation of 0.5 to add to the R-value of your mattress.
- Leg insulation, if you use a short mattress of 120 centimeters, for example.
- Non-slip surface in the tent (inflatable mattresses are often slippery).
- Noise-reducing surface (inflatable mattresses are often noisy).
- Seat cushion during the day and at camp.
- Foam reinforcement to place in the back of your backpack.
- Sleeping pad for your dog.
