Gear Guide 2009: Big Agnes Cyclone SL Ultralight Chair Kit Review

Turn your sleeping pad into a comfy camp chair.

Ultralight Chair Kit

Yes, even gram-counting fast-packers like to relax in camp. That’s why we gave the Cyclone SL an Editors’ Choice Award last year (4/08): For just six ounces, it turns your sleeping pad (20 inches wide, varying lengths) into a comfortable, supportive chair.

And despite the ultralight fabrics and tent-pole support, our test samples have survived plenty of rough relaxing. $40; 6 oz.; bigagnes.com
