Our verdict
We're siding with a professional tester who said that the Quantix SF is like an "ice cream flavor that hits all palates." Its well-roundedness is quite remarkable indeed. That said, this moderately downturned kick from Scarpa steals the spotlight where clinging on feature-less parts of the rock is concerned. It's also as precise on smaller holds as it is responsive on heel hooks.
