I'm looking into buying my first bouldering pad. Done a bit of research online and everyone seems pretty happy with the Organic Full + Half pad combo. Any words of wisdom on the subject?

Organic pads are the best, you won't be disappointed.

If you don't mind the wait, go for Organic. You might be waiting 3 weeks for your pad, BUT, they are by far the best quality foam, best design (you can personalize it) and durable. They are the same price as the Dropzone (can vary depending on US/ CAN exchange) and will last you years longer.

Organic are definitely great. I have the full pad half pad combo and love it. The half pad can be very useful and the whole set up is pretty light.

One thing I wish I did was make my own design. I was charged for a custom pad anyway, and it was only 10 dollars so I should have just drawn what I wanted out.

I saw a couple of the UNB Mad Rock pads in use this weekend and I thought they were pretty good. I especially liked how two ore more of the same pad could be velcroed together.

I'm no expert on crashpads though... I still climb on a Cordless.
