I'm still curious about which one is the most comfortable to sit or sleep on. I'm going to use them to sleep in my car, so this is so important for me. Súper helpful video btw! Congrats!
Thanks! I like to use the snap to sleep on because it's the most comfortable in my opinion. So I use the snap together with the edelrid or the petzl depending on what I take with me. So my upper body is on the snap and my legs on the other one.
Thanks for the help deciding which crashpad to consider.
It looked SO heavy with the 4 of them haha ! Very useful advice, it helps a bunch
Yeah, it was heavy😅 I'm glad the video was helpful🙏
Great video Felix, loved the massive stack of mats!
Thanks! Yeah, I think it was worth it walking twice to the car and back to get all the crashpads up there🤪
Very usefull video thanks for that ! I have an ocun crashpad but there is no hip belt and shoulder straps are really aggresive. In the end, i because i have to hike a lot, i end up only using my elderid sit start to go bouldering, which is not the safest option.
By the way, does the sit start elderid fit in the petzl ?
Very nice video! Helped me a lot to consider wich crashpad I should buy, btw is the petzl one you have the petzl alto or cirro?
Glad I could help! It's the Cirro
@@felijockialright! Thank you sm for your tips!
I have used my Snap Guts only once and one corner has gotten very soft already. It sinks in to half its thikness when standing on the corner :(
My Snap is now also getting soft in the middle but it is after a few years of using it. I think from the durability the snap is probably the worst of the crashpads I have but I also used it more than the other ones.
@@felijocki thanks, with durability do you mean the shell or foam or velcro? I bought it because of the 'air technology' which should preserve the foam.
I mean the shell but to be fair I also use this crashpad as a mattress in my car to sleep on so it got used a lot more than the other pads.
Since you mention it, my biggest problem with the snap is the Velcro. I don't really like it as I also showed in the video with the carrying system at 4:00 and it is not as durable as the other versions on the other crashpads
I have the petzl as a gift from my ex. I love it though I have nothing to compare it, and the carrying something is meant for tall people, it’s very uncomfortable if you’re my height (5’2)
Petzl is the way to go
What an intro lol

Glad it was useful🙏🏼 Yes the sitstart easily fits into the petzl, I always have a lot of stuff with me and it all fits in the Petzl with the sitstart.
