I would like to sincerely thank you for the video and the effort you put into it. It is currently the only video that shows how to efficiently get the air out of the sleeping pad and, even more importantly for me, how to properly fold it at the end. Thank you very much for that! Warm regards from Germany!

I really appreciate that! I try to make the video I wish existed when I bought something. The valve and deflating were two challenges I had with this pad! Warm regards back from California!

This was a great video. I had a shakedown trip and never got the hang of it. Now that you so clearly explained it, I completely understand how to use my Neoair Xlite. Thank you for taking the time to do this, you are a great teacher.

Thank you so much! I really wish this video had existed when I bought the pad- I watched SO many videos trying to figure it out, so I'm really happy that this was helpful for you. 😊

Thanks, very helpful! I was going to ask if you would consider creating a "roll up the sleeping pad" video, and here it is. :)

Hey Switchback, thanks for the video! Why would use a bag instead of inflating with your lungs ? Is there anything wrong with breathing out in the mattress to inflate it?

There’s some evidence of issues with the moisture. Some evidence of possible mold, shortening the life of your pad, and that it can lower the insulation rating. I use the sack or a pump on the trail. I hope that helps!

I read on the instruction that it is recommended to keep the valve open, and so do I, do you know why? Anyways ii doesnt specify which one or if both.. I prefer to keep the second one closed because it is easier to pack sice it takes less volume. what do you think?

I store it with both valves open, because it can allow any air to escape if I go up in elevation, and doesn’t trap moisture the way it can when both are closed. Having the Winglock open does make it a little harder to fit in the storage sack, though! That’s my take, anyway. Thank you for your comment! ☺️
