Get the 6x36. I bought the 6x12 and love it but keep falling off of it!

Don't hold back

I don't have ITB problems (yet) but I was just wondering... would a foam swimming pool "noodle" work just as well?

i like the quad baller from www.tpmassageball.com.

Probably not, the foam rollers seem like they are a bit more stiff and larger in diameter. I don't have any injuries (other than wacking my knee on the table last night!) but I still use a foam roller every day on my legs and back. They are really great tools and worth every penny. I have a couple of different sizes...

In short, no. They're not firm enough, too squishy and flexible to be effective.

I agree. I don't have the quadballer, but I have the footballer, block and TP massage ball--fantastic products that really do help.

I used one regularly on my ITB and picked it up at my Chiro/ PT office. Might be worth a call locally to see if you can buy one from them. Many gyms have them if you want to try one first before you buy.

Thanks bunches, folks! I'm getting 'em today, methinks.

Check Toys R Us. They have what appears to be 6" rollers, and they seem to be just as stiff as the ones my chiropractor uses. These still have a small hole in the center. Don't think it reduces stiffness much, but you could slip in a piece of sprinkler pipe if you really wanted to. Cost: $4.99
