 Wonderful product that works Nov 27, 2009
By L
I received this item prompty. I have been experiencing some mild ankle pain due to an injury I sustained two months or so ago - in addition to general foot pain since I have flat feet - and on recommendation from my podiatrist, ordered this item. After the first day of using it, I felt immediate relief. This relief extended to the next day, so I have been incorporating the Fitter First Wobble Board into my routine everyday. It helps enormously with my ankle, and I think this physical therapy is the most effective for ankle pain. Would highly recommend to anyone with foot or ankle pain.

 16" Fitter First Wobble Board - Good Purchase! Dec 23, 2009
By A. Roy
I researched wobble boards and purchased the Fitter First 16" Wobble Board following a rock climbing-related ankle injury. This was the third sprain to that ankle and wanted a fitness strengthening tool to prevent future injury. I purchased the Fitter First for a number of reasons. The Wobble Board is well built from the grip tape on the surface to the adjustment ball underneath. The solid wooden board rests on very hard plastic, which after about a month of regular use shows no wear, including any scratches (note: I use it on the carpet exclusively). Adjusting the angle from beginner to advanced is easy to learn. We moved up to the intermediate angle (17") one week after receiving it. Both my wife and I agreed that the easy setting (15") was too boring. The intermediate angle provides a good balance of control and difficulty. The board comes with a helpful instructional booklet showing various exercises and stretches. While I purchased this board mainly for ankle rehabilitation and strength building, it's a great tool for stretching and push-ups too. And entertainment! We make up balance games in front of the TV. I highly recommend the 16" board for athletes and/or those looking for a challenging experience.

Highly recommended Mar 29, 2009
By W. Mackenzie
Definitely strengthens the smaller muscles in the feet, knees, and legs; the ones required for stability and balance. Easy to use, well designed, and highly recommended to anyone that wants to either improve their game or enhance/repair the muscle tissue which protects the joints.

Great balance training tool Dec 28, 2009
By Alaska Mountaineer

This is a great balance training tool. The durable construction and adjustable difficulty will ensure a challenging workout for a long time to come. The only improvement that I would suggest is adding more grip to the top surface. It can be a bit slippery depending on footwear. Most of the time it's not an issue, but occasionally I would like more traction.

Ankle rehaber Aug 09, 2011
By dak
If I recall correctly when reviewing comments prior to my purchase, several people indicated that the surface was somewhat slippery. Having purchased this product to continue to rehab my ankle after a sprain and being very cautious about potentially sliding or falling that would cause further damage, I did not find the surface to be slippery. I use the product mostly in my bare feet but also with shoes. I felt pretty uncoordinated the first day I used the wobble board but by the second day I started to feel more comfortable. I've used the product about a month now and I believe it has helped with my stability. I am still on the lowest setting and it is higher than I used in rehab. I think if you are just starting out on rehab and are purchasing a wobble board you may want to consider the board that is larger and will be lower to the ground. I bought this product about 4 months after my grade 3 ankle sprain.
