I think you'd need to define some criteria (price? portability? durability? company policies in regards to the community/planet/etc, ...) to have a shot at an answer, and post it in the bouldering forum.

It is to crush your enemies, to see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentations of their women.

Here's try two:

debatable, but from the tests i've seen, the Flashed Air pads are the best in force reduction/dispersal.

The best crash pad is also what is best in life.
Either what I said earlier, or a Metolius large circa 2002.

Ive only had MM and never had a bad thing to say about them, but I have also heard nothing but good things about Organic Pads. Not sure you can go wrong with either.

No one is respnding because the answer is clear - Organic.
Pick up a full pad and a half pad - should cover most needs, and you can carry them all at once easily.
Organic aren't the most pleasant to fall on your butt after a botched sit-start, but for anything above 2 feet, they can't be beat in my opnion.

I can tell what pad I don't like, but its the cheapest...Mad Rock. I always bouncing off the stupid thing. I love BD Mondo and Organic, my buddies own them, will not fit in my car. I love my Franklin Drop Zone (before BD bought them). Go bouldering with friends who have pads. If you see a pad with another group asked if you could try it out.
