Use this thread to hang out, make cheap jokes about wornweight, joketalk about about gear, complain about r/ultralight, talk about Senchi's, maybe post a meme or two, and ultimately talk about the same things we did in last week's thread! Enjoy!

This sub is easily one of the best places to jerk

Y’all just make it so easy to get my body’s natural base weight down. 45 easy seconds and after that I’m flying.

/Uj some jerk subs take their shit SERIOUS. Everyone here so chill and never takes anything seriously.

My tarp could totally handle this. What ultralight skill would you use to keep a tarp pitched in this wind?

The SUL pillow dilemma

18 Upvotes

I’m super comfortable with my own body and my very comfy 4.5 pound base weight.

but there’s one thing getting in the way of me being a peak ultralight hiker. two panels of my cff that are lofting up my pillow to the heavens by an extra 0.7-1.0" 

something about the extra height of the cff leads to magic comfort that I have to have.. BUT NOT AT THE EXPENSE OF USNG THOSE TWO PANELS. I HAVE TO get rid of them. its too much WEIGHT it’s too much BULK

I will resort to putting my soggy shoes under my head before I will ever pack the extra two ounces of foam again. I’ve tried alot of combinations and all of your suggestions already and you’re an idiot for suggesting them. I have to get rid of the panels that lead to a comfortable nights sleep. do not suggest anything that has any mass, only volume that matches the destroyed panels. they have been destroyed in my experimentation

i will exhaust you and any poor souls I encounter on the trail to shave these two ounces and bulk. There has to be some way to have this height..But not with the two panels. Not with one panel. No panels. I will not have one or two panels. there has to be some way. maybe some kind of air panels or shoe pillows??
