Of the vibrating foam rollers we tested, the Premvida Arrow was our favorite. With its intuitive and beefy three-position dial, controlling the three vibration levels is simple. This interface was the most user-friendly we saw in our lineup. The extra firm EVA foam exterior features dual massage zones to tailor your experience further. The vibrations, combined with the moderate 6" diameter, help to further release tight and stubborn muscle groups. The battery lasted us two hours and 44 minutes on full power during our testing. The charging port is tucked under a removable cover, protecting it from becoming contaminated by sweat, dust, or the dog hair that might reside on your floor. Premvida provides a one-year warranty for registered products, which is a great bonus.
There were a couple of things that we didn't like about the Arrow. First, we found it a little undersized for those testers with wider backs. That said, since it is a vibrating roller, we didn't feel as inclined to recline with it horizontally across the back. Of course, it all comes down to individual preference, but we personally don't love the sensation of our spinal cords vibrating. Secondly, we wish there was a built-in battery indicator, as you need to plug it in to find out the current battery level. Our main gripe, however, is how loud it is. At an average of 75 dBa, it is very noticeable and even distracting. The Arrow is also on the pricier side, but if you are looking for a massage tool with the ability to go deep, we think you'll be glad you paid up.

 So again, it's it's a very solid device. It'S definitely one i'd recommend. I look forward to trying it out against some of those others, such as the viper and some of the other popular ones that are out there, but i look forward to the app being compatible with it as well and showing you guys what that looks like once That app is compatible, but that is the wave roller by farragun. Well, i did just get it uh if you do have any questions, go ahead and drop them down in the comments i'll do my best to answer them, but that's the wave roller by farragun

 It is something that's starting to become a little bit more prevalent in the recovery industry. You see a lot of different vibrating foam rollers out there. I know hyper ice with their viper was one of the very first companies out there with a vibrating foam roller and the technology behind vibrating foam rollers really is a pretty simple one in the sense that vibration has been found to help desensitize pain. So it's actually pretty common that you'll see children when they're getting shots

 It is a relatively firm foam. However, it does have a good amount of give to it so um. I don't think it's gon na be too hard, but it is firm enough if you're, someone that likes something - that's really solid but we'll roll around on it here for a couple minutes and then i'll come back and we'll talk about it. So i am going to be using it on a carpet here, i'm just going to start by putting it on its lowest speed

 I could definitely feel the vibration, not only in my legs, but also up into my torso, especially when i had on that high speed. It was vibrating all up and down my legs, so that was just kind of a nice feeling in general, even on the muscles that i wasn't strictly rolling against. So again, it's it's a very solid device. It'S definitely one i'd recommend
