    New pads for spurs?

    The above post is spot on in my opinion but I realize that would be replacing the pads as opposed to replacing straps. I would warn that there is an outside chance that discomfort comes from the ergonomics of the climbers themselves. Anyone around you have Opsal pads you could borrow off...

    Overuse Injuries

    GRCS

    Both are useful and the ideal in my mind. I've caught logs with the Hobbs I would never drop into the GRCS. But for versatility I would think this would be first choice for most outfits.
