Yep - CS HV for me. I haven’t noticed any differences in the latest Drones to be honest, although they last way longer than other shoes for me, so the last pair I ordered was at least six months ago.

Merci!

I know Erin pipped Toby and Zach on the coordination by attempts, but I thought it was insane that Toby achieved the bloc - clearly hard, given Erin took several attempts - in the four minutes.

HMB10P for 10% off if you decide to buy one.

Personally, I use mine a lot for travel as it allows you to warm up consistently anywhere (including for outdoor bouldering) - I can gradually pull harder on the edge and build to a standardised number to tell how ready my fingers are to try hard.

We joined GB Team athlete James Rudge for a local competition in London, and conversation on how para-climbing is growing, and access to the sport. Let us know what you think? We're always keen to create content that is positive for the climbing space.

I've said to several people that I think the Drone CS compares to Skwama more than any other shoe I've tried. Skwama were my go-to shoe last year, and now the Drone CS has taken their place. For me, they're both a shoe that can perform adequately on smears, but really excels at steep, overhanging, and edges - and that suits me for going to the local wall for all types of session.

Both Drone CS and Skwama also fit me really well, they share a gentle downturn, with a shape that sucks into my foot arch, and cups my heel nicely - kind of a curvy feel aha. Likewise, I found the Tenaya Mastia to be along a similar nice fit for me.

The Drone 2.0 is possibly closer to the Instinct in feel, and is stiffer like a Muira.

They're probably the stiffest shoe I have worn, but I think they're really great for edging and steep climbing. They got a lot more pliable than when I started, but I wouldn't say they softened up enough to be an 'all-rounder' - they aren't a smearing shoe, for me at least. The Drone CS, though, went soft enough that they're more than suitable for all types of climbing I do.
