Write your question here...I'm looking for sleeping atop concrete, and I am a side sleeper. Would something else be better than the Z-lite?

You will probably be better served by and inflatable. If possible borrow one of each and compare prior to buying.

Yeah, if you're looking to keep cost/weight down, I prefer the Therm-a-Rest Ridge Rest pad over the Z-Lite. Although the Z-Lite supposedly has more thickness, the construction of the Ridge Rest is far more durable. Honestly, though, if it were up to me, I would opt of the Therm-a-Rest ToughSkin self-inflating pad. Although you'll have to shell out more coin and deal with more weight, the added comfort you would get from sleeping on the ToughSkin would make it completely worth it, ESPECIALLY with you being a side sleeper. That, and the ToughSkin is designed to handle rough surfaces like concrete. Hope this helps!
