Questioning my life choices...
I spent my first night in my TJM Yulara tent and was unimpressed with the mattress comfort. I installed the Tepui sheets, which are fantastic, over the 2.5" foam mattress and both my wife and I had hip pain from the hinge plate area digging in and creating pressure. I've read up on people doing various things from full 4" foam (mixed soft/hard components) to running Xped mattresses to running inflatables (Therm-a-Rest, etc.) UNDER the mattress and everything in between.
I've considered just buying a 2nd RTT mattress and plopping it on top of the one that's in there. I really want to keep the sheets and that seems like it's the easiest option to do so while ensuring it folds properly.
The other option is to buy 2x inflatables to put UNDER the mattress (not sure if they would fit in the cover, probably not) but how would these stay in place as it folds? I don't under stand how a self-inflating mattress works UNDER the standard foam. Do they inflate as they should with weight on top?
Either way, I'm probably going with Tepui's 1/2" thick anti-condensation mat which will also provide some cushion while protecting the air mattresses from the bolt heads on the floor.
