@Dave, that's what she said! @jut, I've got to agree with Dave, it won't get firm unless you blow it. I may have incorrectly called it self-inflating, but what I meant was that it is an open-cell foam pad. I prefer them to the all-air designs which are more like a pool raft. They are more comfortable and supportive.

It's an open-cell foam pad, so it will self-inflate. I've found, however, that even if I'm patient enough to let a pad inflate itself, it doesn't get firm enough without a few extra lungfulls of air. Of course, I wasn't that patient and I always blew my pads up manually anyway.
