I've been really impressed with both the Big Squishy and the Drifter. The build quality is excellent and the features fantastic. Understandably this combination comes at a price, but then these days bouldering pads all seem pretty expensive compared to what they used to be, so I think some re-calibration is in order. Gone are the days when you can buy one for £60. If I were to change anything it would probably be to make the Big Squishy a little less squishy and a little more like the Drifter in terms of its construction, but I do acknowledge that this is a personal bias and some may like it feeling a little softer.
