some advice please.

had two pairs of blue vcs. always thought c4 was stiffer/more supportive, however, have recently read to the contrary.

any thoughts/experience?

thanks.

I always felt that c4 sticks and then suddenly totally slips once you push it too far and was maybe stiffer though that may just be whites.

Whereas onyxx always felt like it slipped a bit more of the time but maybe less suddenly so you had time to adjust?

If that makes any sense?

Hope you had fun at Coombeshead Tor the other day!

Cheers Dunc.

Unfortunately was wet at combshead. Looks class though.

Just seen that the blue velcros are missing from the Five Ten website and that the beige ones are listed as having C4 now.
