I concur, the non-inflatable Thermarest is good enough to sleep on in almost any environment I slept well on in at high altitudes on rocky ground and I'm a big guy (6'2", 220lbs). For me, non-inflatable equals 'peace of mind'. Throw it on the ground outside your tent, sit on it by the fire, etc. Even if gets punctured, its performance is unaffected. Yes, it doesn't pack as small as an inflatable, but the trade-off is worth it.
I'm so glad that those people who wrote in to complain about how you wasted their time found that, in the end, they still had enough extra time to write in & complain. (Some of them sounded like you had left them with nothing.) Meanwhile, I found the video lively-& useful. Thanks. P.S. I'll add that you better not say anything funny about Iceland-or I'll be pissed.
Yeah unfortunately bar for internet discord is set very low lol. Thank you for the kind words about the video. Very much appreciated! Iceland is the best 🤙
Thanks for the review. Decided to pull the trigger on buying one of these. Not sure what the negative commenters are needing..Haters gonna hate, I guess. If they don’t like the video they can just move on; simple as that.
True that the ridgerest/foam pads are good enough to sleep on in almost any environment ...but as a cold and stomach sleeper (and also side sleepers)...its not the best
Yeah, I hear you. Got a bunch of similar comments on this video about how I rambled on for too long at the beginning. Definitely appreciate the feedback and I've been trying to get to the point a bit faster in my more recent reviews. Thanks for taking the time to leave a comment!
I love the way u explained why it is better than the foam pad. However, u talk a lot of stuff that wasted a lot of our time.......! For that, I give u 5 out of 10 pts. Some of the viewers probably becomes bored and left before u had started to explain why it is better that the other foam pad.
Yeah I hear that. Was definitely trying way to hard to be funny and entertaining, which clearly backfired in this case. Hopefully my more recent videos have improved on this. Thanks for the feedback 👍
@@FinerBub I hve found no ytubers have explained as clearly as u have done. No one has mentioned the moisture part. For that, I give u 10 pts out of 10. Today, most people have no time for other fun stuff. They watch utube fr a specific reason. I appreciate yr reply.............. Maybe u should re-do the vid, and do the explanation at the beginning instead of at a later time. Cheers....... Tks fr sharing............. I will buy one because of yr vid.
No need to apologize. I appreciate the feedback. I was definitely still figuring out how to make a decent video when this came out. I think my more recent uploads are much better... but given your reaction to this video, I'd be curious to hear your thoughts on whether or not I've improved. Either way, thanks for commenting!
Yeah… not my best performance… if you ever happen upon some of my more recent videos feel free to let me know if you notice an improvement. Thanks for the feedback.
I already own one of these pads but your video made me want to buy another one. Thanks FinerBub! 👍
Hilarious! glad you liked it!

Well said!
Exactly where in the video was the review?
Yeah, I kinda dropped the ball on this one. Tried to be to TH-camy... Apologies.
This pad was recommended in the Sierra magazine based on price and durability (you can use it as a seat)...thanks for the info
Sweet! Thanks for commenting
How often do people comment on your heterochromia?
Occasionally. You are the first in a while 🤙

Nice! Yeah, it’s all good. Definitely not my best video. Thanks for the kind words though 🤙
Did you forget to review the Thermarest RidgeRest SOLite in this video? There was a lot of talk but not about the sleeping pad.
Yeah it’s a rambly one. Patience is the key here
Loved the sponge demo! Great endorsement!
Thanks! Didn't even have to go outside for that one lol
11 minutes of jibberish. For anyone interested, he highlights two benefits: It's 80% cheaper than an air mat and won't puncture.
Yeah... not my best work

Agreed. Thanks for commenting!
Geez, you need to keep your reviews more straight forward buddy. It'd make your videos much more appealing.

I gave him the benefit of the doubt and endured the 11 minutes.
This guy is funny af!

Sorry mate but you waffle too much.

Give up the comedy routine. I didn't come for that. Didn't stay either.
Yeah… not my best performance… if you ever happen upon some of my more recent videos feel free to let me know if you notice an improvement. Thanks for the feedback.
Good information. With all due respect please stop trying to be funny. It’s not.
Yeah not my best work
