Longest crash pad?
|
I'm looking for the longest-length crash pad available to me here in the US. I need to be able to comfortably sleep on it, as it will be my bed for quite a while. I know Edelrid makes/made the Crux model--at 82" long!--but it is not currently available anywhere online on US websites. (It would suit my needs perfectly!) I know ClimbX, Asana, Metolius, and Mad Rock make models which hit around 6 feet long, but I'm a fairly tall SOB, so these won't work for me... |
|
I really liked sleeping on my MadRock triple pad. It's 70 inches I think, and feels fine to hang your feet off the end, or lay them on a pack if you want a footrest. Should work for someone up to 6'2" I'd think. The price can't be beat , that's for sure. |

Sir Lands a Lot from Asana is a pretty good long pad for decently cheap |
|
Check out the Edelrid Mantle. It has a unique feature that allows you to open the pad in a normal square shape or by utilizing a zipper at the hinge open the pad the long way so it's like 8 feet long by two feet wide. |

Since someone in this thread asked for it, you can buy the Edelrid Crash Pads (Mantle and Crux) directly on their website: |

I can't believe someone hasn't suggested it yet... |

I'm 6'4" and find anything over 4 feet works. Your calves don't need pampering. The Mad Rock Triple is pretty good though. Good for bouldering too. Or the BD Mondo, which is a little bit shorter (I hear the older model made by Franklin is better, if you can find one for sale). |

Ocun makes crash pads that you can zip one way for nice square coverage and zip another way for sleeping on (2m long). I can think of the Sundance and Moonwalk pads, but there are a few more models. |
