I tried out a breathable nylon protector that I got from 2QZQ. I chose this material to reduce the potential of condensation.
In making this selection, I had been very pleased with Donna's correspondence as well with her protector when I received it. I liked what I saw.
I was doubly curious about how it would work after looking at Shug's Art Loeb video.
I don't have my underquilt yet but this weekend I tried the protector in my backyard during two cool windy nights using my CCF pads. Wind gusted Saturday night to the 20 mph range. I purposedly used my mosquito net instead of my WWB top cover because I wanted to understand the dynamics of the protector.
I've slept with this exposure and wind before and would feel the gusts on my shoulders. It was tolerable but not comfortable.
That said, Saturday and Sunday nights when I pulled the protector up a bit on my shoulders, all was good! The protector acted as a very effective wind blocker. Cool. I really like that capability.
I think the protector will be a pretty handy tool.
