This is the way.6’3” 260# side sleeper.
I tried neoair, klymit, and a couple of others. Bought a sea to summit ether light a few years back and have hardly used any of my other pads since. 4inches thick. Durable. Reasonably light for the comfort it offers. I can run mine just below fully inflated and still not bottom out. FWIW I use the wide rectangular version and set up my pillow off the pad.

I use this same pad. I’ve used it backpacking close to home and took it to the NWT for a backpack sheep hunt. Slept great and no leak issues.6’3” 260# side sleeper.

I have slept on two ridgerests stacked as you describe. It feels like sleeping on a sheet of plywood - terrible.Anyone just try double foam pads, like 2 thermarest ridgerest? I have an insulated air core ultra, to say it sucks may be a bit harsh but I definitely don't like it!

I mostly agree. I got rid of a klymit static V insulated because it slept too cold. I'm much warmer with the Nemo Tensor Insulated.I’m curious to know if people who recommend Klymit have ever used anything else…they’re ok for what they are; a budget pad. They are thin, not all that warm, and barely more comfortable than sleeping on concrete.
I switched from an insulated V to the new BA Zoom UL mostly for comfort. The Klymit is so thin I felt like it wasn’t even there.I mostly agree. I got rid of a klymit static V insulated because it slept too cold. I'm much warmer with the Nemo Tensor Insulated.
The new Xtherm is 3in thick compared to 2.5in for the older one. Better than sleeping on an Exped pool float.I’m going to recommend against the x- therm. I use one for fast and light mountaineering objectives because of its warmth to weight ratio, but it’s painfully uncomfortable. I hear good things about the big Agnes pads.
