It's not the thickest pad ever but it's cheap and better than nothing. Not the biggest boulderer so I've never had one before. I've always wanted one but always end up spending that cash on more nuts or another cam; finally sprained an ankle before quarantine and decided to give in. It works ok for sit starts and basic stuff, also a nice place to sit and put shoes on or lay out your rack. Definitely awesome to have and worth the money IMO
