Looking for a good way to attach my pad to the bag. I flop around a lot, and am always sliding off the pad.

Currently use xlite pad w/ marmot helium

I’ve used Gear Aid silicone sealant on my last two pads. You can either run narrow strips of sealant across the pad or make dots. Both will work and hold your bag on the pad whether you just move in the night, toss and turn, or the ground is at a slope. I do both sides of the pad so it won’t slide on a floored shelter or a Tyvek sheet either.

I always do narrow strips across the width of the pad and it holds my bag in place And also helps when rolling the pad back up tight. The seam sealer grips to the pad as you roll it and makes for a tighter roll. Good luck!
