I was looking for something rather than a regular steak, in the X-Wing from Mobility WOD. The texture in firmness is great, but unlike the regular stick it gets bumpy and that’s not produce as smooth a rolling pattern. It’s a bit bumpy.

Not impressed. What am I supposed to say? Its not very useful and overpriced. And what the heck? is with the handles?

I purchase this about two months ago. Great for hamstrings, quads and calfs.

I have been using a standard foam roller at home and in the gym for some time now for recovery purposes. Lately, I have been looking to improve my post-workout mobility and recovery, simply because a regular foam roller just wasn't targeting the deep muscle tissue like it once was when I first started foam rolling. Without a doubt the Grid STK X from Trigger Point has met my needs! This product is a great recovery tool that provides enhanced pressure to sprecifc areas of your body that were once much harder to target with a larger foam roller. This allows for greater finesse to hit those deep areas of tissue that might hamper your overall mobiity after a workout. Also, the enhanced firmness of the roller is ideal for individuals who are seasoned users of foam rollers as a recovery method. The ergonomic handles are also very soft, well-constructed knobs that are another great addition for pin-pointing specific muscles or knots that may develop from training. This is a great tool for anyone looking to enhance their mobility, and the small size of the stick makes this product ideal for on-the-go or anyone who spends a considerable amount of time traveling. Also, it is important to note that anyone who suffers from anytype of mobility impairment or those who struggle using traditional foam rollers on the ground, this a great product which can help alleviate some of those issues which might have hampered your pre or post-workout mobility. You can simply use this product standing or even in a chair which can be very beneifical. Overall, it is a very well-constructed product that was certainly thoughtout to the fullest extent by Trigger Point. It will meet the needs of any indivudal, no matter your skill level or athletic ability. This is definitely a product everyone should consider using on a regular basis if you are looking to drastically improve your mobility and recovery. The price may seem high for a massage stick, but it is certainly worth every penny, which is something I do not regret, and I am sure you wouldn't either. And, as always, fast shipping and a hassle-free buying experience from Rogue. Thank you!

Out of all the mobility tools i have (grid foam rollers, lacross balls, supernova) this is the best! I feel like it loosens and releases tissue much more efficiently than anything on quads, hams, I.T. bands, and calves (faster, more effective, less effort). Using this tool also requires less pressure than a foam roller because it digs in harder due to smaller surface area and from the knobs. Also glad I got the stiffer one, which has pretty much no give. I'm sure this tools works great on forearms, triceps, and biceps (pretty much anywhere you can use it), but haven't had any one help me out with that. Also want to add that I believe these knobs accomplish what the rumble roller tries to do because they are spaced so much closer together and pinch trigger points instead of letting them slide around. Overall great product, well built, and works GREAT! highly recommend
