Snap are a French climbing company, formed in 1996 and still run independently by it's founding creator, nicknamed Snapman
When Snap brought out the Wrap 2 years ago with it's air cell technology, they blurred the line between bouldering and higballing. They did this by creating a pad which offers a soft comfy landing when falling off from close to the ground, but gets firmer the further you fall making it the perfect pad for everything from highballs, to circuits.
It does this by using compartmentalised foam cells, made from PU and wrapped in taffeta with a few small holes in the base. This stops the air from escaping too quickly when landed on, and causes more cells to be deployed which in turn eliminates any rebound. It is lighter than any other pad using air cell technology so it really can be your one and only pad.
Now the Wrap is available from a menu of three different sizes, so whatever the size of your vehicle, and depending on how high you like to boulder, there's a Wrap to suit everyone's tastes:
