\'Buck Super Wrap pads.....etc.
Buckingham Steel Insert Wrap Pads
Wanted a set of these for a long time, finally got around to buying a set, these are the Buckingham Steel Insert wrap pads, not the softies.
They are canted about fifteen degrees forward, and I have say they are hands down the most comfy cap I have ever climbed in. I have tried Caddie carps, big leather softies from 'Buck, and various other hard and soft caps over the years, and none of them came close to the tight fitting feeling of comfort that the SuperWraps give me.
Thursday I climbed all morning, and better part of the afternoon up and down pecker pole birch leaners, if there is a test of gaff comfort boys these are the trees, I could not believe the comfort, basically I didn't notice the gaffs. They don't shift around so you don't notice them at all.
If you are considering a new cap, seriously consider SuperWraps, try some out if you can, I think you'll be in for a treat.
Got my new saddle yesterday, Petzl Navaho Sit(damn they were out of sit fasts that have the quick connect buckles) in the mail, so look forward to trying it out this week as well, sooooooooo, soooooooo light. Was kinda bummed about the leg straps having no quick connects, but after trying the saddle on and feeling the light weight, I lost my concern, this thing will be getting worn from tree to tree it is so light and tight fitting, let you know how I make out.
have a good safe week.
