Fantastic pad

3 years ago

I picked this pad up six months ago. When it's not at the crag, it's on the floor of my homewall shed, getting used 1-2 times a week. Really like the pad. I picked it up on sale, so I don't know if I like the pad to pay full price for it, there's a lot of tough competition out there in that price range. However, on sale, I don't think it can be beat and it seems to go on sale often. The only thing I really dislike about the pad is the design. If it had been white art on black background, that would have been great, but being a white/cream pad, this thing is permanently dirty. The only nice thing about the bright white is that a top-down photo of the climber against that background frames the climber nicely, but it's not enough to for me to want it in that color, except on sale. The white is the only downside though. Straps are padded, adjustable and comfortable. The flap with the grey cotton pad to wipe off your shoes is a lifesaver. The straps to tie the pad down are nice, and very long so you can easily stack another pad in there. I carry a Metolius Session in there with lots of strap to spare. Furthermore, there's a second flap that folds from underneath that would catch anything sliding through. Overall, very pleased with the pad, just wish that one that wasn't so susceptible to dirt went on sale.

Great crash pad: safe and robust but lacks features

1 year ago

I’ve used this crash pad for about 3 trips worth of bouldering. I can fit two of them in my Subaru Impreza which is amazing. The foam is superb and provides a great landing. The Joshua tree color looks sweet but stains easily, which is not an issue for me. The built in shoe-wipe mat seems gimmicky but is actually really nice when the ground is a bit muddy. These pads are quite large, if you boulder solo I might recommend getting two smaller pads instead of one of these. For large groups with multiple pads, though, these are great central pads! My only issue with these pads is the fastening system. The straps are a little small and hard to work with, especially with two pads stacked on each other. It would also be nice to have some gear loops, but this is pretty easy to get around with a carabiner and a daisy chain.

Good Pad

8 months ago

Used this pad for bouldering. It's a nice sized large pad and provided enough landing space when falling/jumping off the rock. It is pretty large so that makes it hard to fit in the trunk of my car without folding down the seats. Great for all levels of climbers, whether you're just getting into it or well experienced. I like the closure system.

Great crash pad

I love the crash pad but wish I had bought the smaller size. I’m 5’4” & it’s a bit big for my frame to get it out to the crag. I should have researched sizes more. Overall great pad though.

Great pad

Really solid pad. Easy to carry and great size. Only downside is it does not easily become a couch, but I will be adding straps for that
