Metolius Shortstop Crash Pad

Extra coverage and seamless protection—the Shortstop Crash Pad

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I always toss the Shortstop on top of my main pad or in front of sketchy landings. It’s super light and easy to carry, and it fills in those gaps that can wreck an ankle. It’s small, but it makes a big difference when I’m working a problem."

The Metolius Shortstop Crash Pad is a compact solution for adding extra protection to your bouldering setup. Whether we’re filling dead zones between larger pads or covering an awkward rock at the base of a climb, this minimalist pad delivers confidence and versatility without adding bulk.

Its flexible design allows it to fold easily into a standard crash pad or strap on for transport, and the closed-cell foam construction provides durable coverage for uneven landings. When the landing zone is less than perfect, the Shortstop gives us one more tool to manage risk and stay focused on the send.
