Black Diamond Impact Crash Pad
Surprisingly Cushy

Ranked #34 - Climbing Ropes and Bouldering Pads
December 29, 2008
Bought this awhile back as my first boulder pad, and I was really impressed with how well this handles some of the higher problems that me and my buddies have tried. A few weeks ago, my buddy bailed from a tough topout move ~20ft high, and landed shoulder first on the pad. I figured that we would be using the pad as a stretcher on the way out, but he was able to pop up without injury. Of course it requires a good spotter considering that it does not cover that much area, but we always need good spotters, right?
