Metolius Boss Hog Crash Pad

The Metolius Boss Hog Crash Pad uses a unique combination of open- and closed-cell foam to provide optimal padding whether you're working a sit start or lobbing off a highball. Metolius placed an inch of closed-cell foam on the top to distribute forces for big falls, and then added a half inch to the bottom for those unexpected back slappers. In the middle of the Boss Hog Crash Pad lies a beefy 2 ½-inches of open-cell foam to take the sting out of any failed send. The suitecase-style fold eliminates gaps in the padding when the thick side faces up, so you don't land with your foot in an unpadded spot and risk ending your season.

Bottom Line: Whether you slip from the first move or the last, the Metolius Boss Hog Crash Pad provides a cush catch.

This pad does what it needs to do - provides soft catches for bouldering falls. I've got about 6 months of continuous use on this pad (it's gathering dust these winter months), and it's softened up very nicely form it's original stiffness, but is still very firm. I've taken a few pretty decent falls on this pad, 15 ft.+, and felt just fine. The carpet top gathers a lot of stuff (sticks, leaves, etc...) but brushes off easily, and, more importantly, cleans shoes really well. One of the stitches on the "hook" side of the velcro closure pocket has ripped, making the pocket a bit of a hassle to use, but I'm happy overall. A better pad than most in this price range.

He Loves it!

For my husband's birthday I got him the Metolius Boss Hog Crash Pad and he loves it! It has the perfect amount of padding for any crash landing. He also loves how it folds up and is easy to carry. His friend decided to get one as well after a day of boldering at the Bald (Rumbing Bald - in North Carolina.)
