Best Pad Investment Ever

By James Simmons January 30, 2009

This Pad is my all around favorite pad. It Fits great into the back of any car and provides a soft catch for that climber that "almost stuck it!" Unlike the mad pad, or metolius fat and cheap bastard pads, this pad does not have a crease in the middle that can bite you ankle if you fall off your highball project and land dead center on it. The taco design of this pad provides a solid landing with no risk of ankle tweakage. The side and bottom flaps make for awesome storage for that climber who always wants to have his gear ready to go at a moments notice. It is soft enough that you can sleep fairly comfortably on it if you had to and firm enough that, unless your trying to repeat Jason Kehl projects, you can fall of pretty much anything and get a safe catch. For highballs I would suggest combining this with the Black Diamond Mondo for perfect protection. All around this is my favorite pad of 6 different pad models I own.
