Since there seems to be a CD rep lurking around here (Jason Livingston)...
Does the All-Season make the same "potato chip bag" rustling sound as the standard Neo Air?
And, off your quote, "but the benefit is that it will take you into January where as the standard NeoAir will most likely need an additional barrier (Ridgerest or Z-Lite) to allow it's use in winter."
Are you saying, that the All Season is good to go on top of snow? I would assume not, and that an additional barrier is needed for the All-Season even when snow camping. I'll be happy to be wrong.
Thanks for any answers you can provide.

Keep in mind to that snow also has an R-Value. Saying this, sleeping on top of snow could be warmer than sleeping directly on frozen ground. With this in mind, I don't see why the All Season couldn't be used on snow without another buffer pad. I would use a ground sheet though.

Saw one of these in a local store. Seems that these new ones don't make nearly as much noise as the older NeoAir due to a change in materials. I compared the two side by side.

Until Jason gets around to it- Don't know about if this one crackles like the NeoAir, but here's the math on R-values. NeoAir All Season- R= 4.9 NeoAir- R= 2.5 Zlite- R= 2.2 total-R= 4.7 RidgeRest-R= 2.8 So, slightly more than the All Season's 4.9 with the NeoAir combined with the RidgeRest, and slightly less with the Zlite. I call that one roughly a draw, but with only 1 pad and less bulk. Hope that helps.
