If you are short (I'm 5'2") or you move around a lot, you may not love it. After talking with one of their employees I decided I would be better off with the torso length X-Lite at 6.1 oz and 41". If you chose the shorter pad you will have to find something to put your feet up on, like your pack or a stuff sack, or you will not give the sleeping bag the ability to loft. I have not purchased one yet but plan to do so in the near future. Let me know if you get one and love/hate it!
Will do! After reading your post, two main thoughts came to my mind:
1. My intention is to get into hammock-ing before I try for a thru-hike, so you will now be my go-to for hammock questions, such as...

2. What hammock do you use? and where the heck are you suppose to put your pack! I cant imagine having it at your feet, barreling towards you all night long. But if I go for the short Inertia, I don't know what I'd use to suspend my feet up to allow for lofting.
