Full Pad
Description
A 24" x 15" pocket flap securely carries your gear and keeps what you stuff in the pad from sliding out. When open for use, our pouch is designed to secure and cover your shoulder straps, making the hike home from a muddy or wet day a bit dryer. The Full Pad closes securely with simple and clean metal buckles and folds down to 36" x 24" x 8" for hiking. Fully adjustable shoulder straps and a thick 2" hip belt haul loads with ease.

The Organic Full Pad has long been regarded as a must-have for any serious boulderer. Whether it's your first pad or you're adding more foam to your collection, the Organic Full will treat you right. Made with high-quality foam and an extremely durable outer, this pad should last you for years. This pad has an external flap that makes attaching it to other pads a breeze and allows you to carry a substantial amount of extra gear. You'll be hard-pressed to find a better mid-sized bouldering crash pad on the market, which is why this one is our Top Pick for a medium-sized pad in our comparative best bouldering crash pad review.
When it comes to the the bouldering pads most people want, Organic’s incredibly durable, full featured, fully customizable system are the most attractive to WeighMyRack users. However when we look at the most owned pads out there, we see a range of brands that are all filling a particular niche in the field, from impact absorption, feature list, and price point.
For seven years, climbers have loved the high quality, durability, and performance of the Organic Full Pad: “It has become the pad by which all other pads are measured.” The 36” x 48” landing zone offers a sizeable coverage area, and the four inches of foam spreads and cushions the impact in a perfect balance. With a comfortable hipbelt and shoulder straps, it’s easy to carry, even on steep approaches to the best alpine areas, and simple hook-and-loop buckles make packing and unpacking a breeze. Color and design customization is a much-loved option, ranging from just picking out the colors to you-create-it graphics. “Every boulderer I know swears by their Organic mats,” one fan said. “Many of them wouldn’t even think of buying—or landing on—anything else.”
Overall, this Full Pad/Briefcase combo is actually quite compact—nice for navigating tight spaces (such as between trees and through Hueco tunnels), and fitting in cars. Both pads together weigh 16 pounds, which is lighter than most “mondo”-sized pads but not as light as other full-sized pads. However, due to the extra protection afforded by having two pads, I was more than happy to lug this extra weight—even on hour-long hikes at 12,500 feet.
One personal pet peeve with crash pads is their mobility—how quickly it takes you to put away your shoes, chalk etc., and fold up the pad. The Full Pad is definitely one of the most ergonomic designs I’ve seen. It closes with just two two-inch Velcro straps that you loop through metal hooks, eliminating the (breakable) plastic buckle on most pad designs. The long straps also give you something to hold onto when you want to relocate the pad quickly to spot your climbing bud. Part of this closure system is a zippered flap that is big enough to hold a couple of pairs of shoes and chalk bags, making packing up even faster.
