Best pad for less than £110?
June 06, 2012, 03:12:40 pm
As the title says really...

I've got a Red Chilli pad which is fine for most things (I think, having never fallen on much else), but was looking at getting a second, probably larger, pad  - partly to boost confidence on higher climbs, but also just for taking mates out when we need more than one pad.

Pretty stumped by the amount of choice - was originally thinking Alpkit but they're not available yet, and the Phud is pretty small compared to my current one.

GoOutdoors have "Climb X" brand mats which I don't think I want to get as a vague protest for ripping off MadRock (Not that I have any affinity with MadRock - just on principle), and then there just seems to be so much choice I end up just looking at the colours which isn't the best thing to base my choice on.

I have no experience of taco mats, and so am not fussed either way.

Wy do you think they are ripping them off? It could just be rebranding?

The court case and subsequent legal spiel they're forced to display on their website...?

With continued hunting however, I seem to have imagined prices being much lower than they are, muchly reducing my options...
