RA’s beautifully simple and uncluttered design is not only spectacularly effective in all forms of climbing but also supremely comfortable, making climbing feel easier and more intuitive
Created to achieve a perfect balance between ultimate responsiveness and maximum transfer of power from the toes when standing on tiny footholds
Constructed on a 4mm rubber outer sole and a five-layer insole, the RA is rigid enough for tiny edges while providing sufficient flexibility and responsiveness for the most tenuous of smears

Tenaya Ratings:
- Rigidity 3.5/5,
More rigid and structured shoes,more power can be transmitted to the rock
- Sensitivity 3.5/5
The more sensitive a shoe is, the more information gets transferred to the climber about the shape and the characteristics of the foot holds, giving a sensation of closer contact with the rock
- Foot Width Response 3/5
This is the capacity of the shoe to adapt to the width of your foot
This capacity is not only determinate by the width of the sole, in some cases a shoe with a narrow sole displays a great capacity to adapt to a wider foot
