Petzl Alto Review

This pad is best for beginner to expert level boulderers who don't carry the largest of loads but do want to carry a small to medium size load securely and at the same time use its many handy features. The solid foam in the taco-style design is good if you frequent boulders that have a lot of sharp, jagged, rocky landings since a hinge-style pad would be more apt to bottom out.
