Metolius Recon Pad

 At first I was not too sure about this but after a play with it the new Recon pad is ace! Its a logic progression of the folding pad and all those years of pad design and manufacture show with the latest offering from Metolius. Its not the cheapest pad on the market but it will fit in car boots with ease and store in your house without having to resort to hiding it away!

Oh and it makes a really cool seat! (aswell as being a really good pad!)
