Elevate your bouldering experience with the Metolius Recon Bouldering Crash Pad. With an impressive 5.5 sq. ft. more landing area than typical pads, this crash pad is designed to keep climbers safe while being easy to transport.
Its innovative 3-panel design features angled hinges that allow for compact folding, eliminating the gutters commonly seen in many folding pads. The Recon pad is constructed with a robust three-layer foam system, including 1 inch of closed-cell foam on top, 2.5 inches of open-cell foam in the center, and 0.5 inches of closed-cell foam on the bottom, providing exceptional impact absorption.
Made from durable 900-denier fabric with ballistic nylon on the bottom, this crash pad is built to withstand regular outdoor use. The carpeted logo serves as a convenient spot to wipe your shoes clean before a climb. Small exterior stash pockets and a spacious interior compartment keep your shoes, chalk bags, and other climbing gear organized.
Padded shoulder straps and dual drag handles make carrying the pad a breeze, while the closure flap reverses during use to protect the shoulder straps from dirt. The burly aluminum buckles are guaranteed for life, ensuring you enjoy your climbing adventures without worry.
