Slant Board for Calf Stretching, Adjustable Portable Wooden Incline Board for Calf Stretcher with Training Poster, 300 Lbs Weight Capacity Calf Stretch Wedge for Leg, Knees, Heel, Ankle & Stretching

TL;DR: I got a monster Charlie horse from riding improperly on a kayak, suffered the lingering injury for over two years, and this thing is the only thing that has ever helped! Two years ago my friend convinced me to squeeze myself onto his one-person ride-on-top kayak to take a spin around the lake, while he was also on it, taking up all of the comfortable space. I was on the floor of the kayak with my legs scrunched up wierd. This is one of the few regrets of my life. At first it was fun, despite the awkward sitting arrangement. Looking into the water, seeing all the little fishies. But as time went on, my leg was a ticking time b***. I was cramped into a very awkward position, not suspecting anything, just trying to be in the moment with my friend on a gorgeous summer day. Then, all of a sudden, the charlie horse from H*** struck me. It was a MONSTER. The pulsing and throbbing were RELENTLESS. My leg was no longer under my own control. My muscles had gone completely rogue on me. I was flailing in a panic, trying not to capsize the new kayak while also trying to find some relief for my leg, and there we were in the middle of the water, many paddles away from land. I had extremely limited freedom to move around on the cramped kayak. My leg was in TROUBLE. I heavily considered throwing myself into the water just so I could straighten my leg and move freely, but did not want to risk accidentally throwing my friend overboard as well. It was TORTURE. I was an idiot to put myself in such a cramped position in the first place, I know. What a clown. It felt like forever before we reached land. I was streaming tears. My leg felt forty years older than the rest of me. I crawled onto land on all fours. When I finally stood up, I was hobbling. The next day was very demanding. We had a fishing trip planned, which involved covering long stretches of rocky shoreline and jumping from boulder to boulder. I had to go very slowly, and rely more on my non-dominant leg. If I was a gazelle the lions would have gotten me for sure. Even so, this probably made my Charlie horse even worse. Again, what a clown! I walk miles every single day for work, can't take time off work. There was no opportunity for this Charlie horse to heal, no matter how I stretched or stayed hydrated. Even if it wasn't pulsing and cramping, the knot that formed that day was always there, always an imminent threat. For years, I had to be careful. No more standing on my tip toes for too long. Careful about how I jump or run. No more stretching my legs out in bed without cautiously limiting that leg. My friend made fun of me. The charlie horse was now a part of my identity that I had not asked for. I could feel the tightness even when I was just resting. The only thing that ever brought any relief to my charlie horse was standing on a slanted surface such as a hillside, with my toes significantly higher than my heel. Then I got the idea to find a surface like this to put in front of my kitchen sink. My house is basically from the dinosaur age and has no built in dish washer. This means that I am the dishwasher, and must stand in front of the kitchen sink often and for extended periods of time. Then I found this device. It has been in front of my kitchen sink for a day and I use it briefly every time I walk by, and whenever I wash the dishes. FINALLY my charlie horse is getting the deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep stretch it so desperately craves! Now I can stretch my leg out again without fear of the charlie horse acting up. I wish I had found this thing sooner. Stretching without it just doesn't do the trick, not with a wall, not by hand, not with stretchy bands, nope. This thing was the cure. It's so good I almost want to call it magical. The relief it provides is magical for sure!! If you have a charlie horse, don't hesitate!!! The grip is sufficient, the design is sturdy wood and folds up flat for storage or travel. Absolutely worth the money. Yes. Buy this. Buy one for everywhere you have to stand for long periods of time. Send your charlie horse to the glue factory! Lol

Two weeks in, this device has been an excellent purchase. I have one of the plastic calf stretching devices. Still use it, but this is different in build and use for me. Much improved bilateral stretching and alternating leg exercises/stretches are possible. I was worried it might be a knock off or subpar. I am over 200 pounds and this is working fine for my weight and range of motion. Love the ability to adjust to different angles and modify the stretch/exercise. Within two day I bought one for my sibling and their spouse. I’m of age that maintaining and improving flexibility are almost more important than weights so I use this daily. After longer runs and post leg day, this is still very welcome. Using it daily at present. Quality: much more sturdy than I anticipated Materials: real wood, good grip/foot placement. Latch is reasonable. Design: very adequate. This is my only multi angle device like this, so for me, it’s perfect. was worried that there might be fewer angles or that the device would awkward such that any savings was not worth it.

As part of my PT regimen to minimize and prevent plantar fascitis, I needed a slant board at home. I found this on Amazon after reading reviews and looking at the pictures. It's perfect and my handy husband couldn't have built one any better than this slant board. It is high quality real wood. Rubber grippers on the bottom that hold it in place on the floor. Different angle options depending on what you need. Even a hook to keep both sections in place if it needs to be stored in between uses. And how nice to get a thank you note included from the creator, Tim, with contact information if there are questions or issues. I appreciate businesses that go that extra mile and are proud of their products.

Sturdy. Well made and already being out to use. Very usable and flexible. Folds up nicely to be put away, out of sight and is Easy to move since it is not too heavy, even though it is solid wood.

This slant board does have a number of features: multiple angles (although some seem pretty darn steep), sandpaper grip, and stores flat; it is also a bit narrow and somewhat unsteady. still, it is well-made and provides a way for deep calf stretching

This is fan-freaking-tastic! There are other ways of stretching your calves but this has multiple levels of stretching and is stable. Nice hook clasp to keep it shut. A handle for easy carrying. Easy to tuck away, but really useful. I especially recommend it for people who suffer from plantar fasciitis, as tight calf muscles exacerbate pain in the foot. I utilize my time by getting on this and reading my emails or an article as I stretch, starting with little height and slowly moving up to a greater level of stretch. I also paid for the rounded pieces that fit into the bottom and allow for rocking balance work while stretching. If addressing calf tightness is your issue then this should work very well.

I purchased this slant board to use at home after total knee replacement. It’s very sturdy and stable to step on and off of. I like that it folds flat for portability and storage. If you have tight muscles in your legs or if you simply want to maintain your flexibility, buy it - you won’t regret it.

Recently been been diagnosed with Plantar fasciitis and was having alot of foot pain. Went to physical thearpy and they had a similar slant board which fixed alot of my issues. After I left therapy I purchased this slant board to help with my stretches. This has been an incredible find since not only does it have the slant board it also doubles as a rocking board to help stretch my calfs. I would recommend this product to anyone who is looking for a a calf stretching board to help with foot pain or just to exercise.
