Now I have just got to say this is a brilliant freaking idea!!

NeoAir Condom - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z_52AZ2gWlE#t=03m44s

I wonder how much something like this would weigh... and how it would
actually help against pine needles and rocks and such.

Hmm, even more wondering... I wonder how much it would weigh if we had one
made with 1.26 oz/sqyd Cuben Fiber fabric!!

Anybody out there who is good at math be able to figure out the sqyd of the
NeoAir small?? Guess from that we could determine how much it would weigh,
huh.

Might even get away with using .74 oz/sqyd... but not sure going to .51
would be all that much of a good idea...
