Essential
I had seen the supernova and had considered ordering one for a while but hesitated due to another reviewers negative experience with it's durability. After tweaking my neck surfing I decided I needed to give it a try in spite of my reservations. Well, let me now say that this item is a must have. I have several similar items and this one is by far the most effective, I've used it on my neck, hip, hand, quads and would not be without it. As for durability, I used it every single day for four months and many times over the last couple of months and it still looks brand new. For me the supernova is essential for my recovery routine.

Love it
I use the 120mm version daily and love it, I've noticed a huge change in my back muscles since using it. I ordered this 80mm version last week and after a few uses, I think this one will replace the 120mm as my favorite mobility tool. Foam rollers pale in comparison to the Supernovas, but a word of caution to beginners...start with the 120mm, it'll take some time to get used to, jumping in to the 80mm will most likely be too much to start with (in my opinion). Either way, both sizes of the Supernova are great and I highly recommend.

Skeptical at First, Sold Now
I had my doubts about the ball but decided to give it a shot. When I first received it I used it a few times for my back and liked it. It had a good, solid feel to it with an even distribution of pressure (better than a lacrosse ball). Then I tried it on my legs. That's when I fell in love. It was like foam rolling only so much better. I could target points with more accuracy with just the right pressure.
I ended up purchasing the 120mm ball and loving it too. I like the larger size but if I had to choose between both, I'd go with the 80mm ball. I'd definitely recommend both.

On-Point Product
The strength is in its size. It very effective at most things except for faced-down gut smashing (and you wouldn't expect it to excel there anyway). I can get a lot farther with this than the large Supernova. Still best to have a variety to discover each tool's strengths and drawbacks. Only downside is I wish it were a shade grippier. Maybe I'm a lightweight.
Thank you Kelly, developers and Rogue.

PERFECT for lower back, hip, and scap pain
Definitely my new favorite mobility tool within the first two minutes of using it.
Anyone who experiences lower back or hip/glute pain must get this! My UL is always tight and I frequently have posterior hip/glute pain from old hip pointer injuries. These spots are very tough to reach with a foam roller, and a lacrosse ball just sort of pokes at it - this thing is the perfect size to get in those areas. More importantly, it's hard and much heavier than a lacrosse ball so it really can smash on the damaged tissue. It also works great for shoulders, traps, and scapula release. Basically anything you would use a lacrosse ball for, this thing can do but is much more effective due to its slightly larger size and weight.
With that said, if you don't tissue mash regularly, definitely ween yourself onto this thing! It has no give whatsoever, so if you're not used to myofascial release start with something softer. Get yourself a softer practice lacrosse ball then work your way up. I will definitely give the 105mm one a try too, to fill the gap between this and my 7" orb!

The shear is real!
Many people would disagree with me, but this is better than the big supernova. It really hits those knots nicely (I mean a knot would be about this size). It's also better constructed. Very solid. I can see the glue on the gray piping that oozed out on the bigger one. No complaints for the smaller! (Though they both get the job done.) Big things really do come in small packages

Nice device, who wrote the product description?
I'd say I love this little thing. Perfect for its intended use and you can easily take it with you for extreme mobility multitasking. I was skeptical at first, but my Queen got it for me for Christmas and it is way better than a LAX ball. Grippier and a little larger, so it doesn't feel like your just poking knots, you're actually smashing them. Now I want all the Mobility WOD tools.
On a side note, who wrote the product description? It's so cheesy, it sounds like some blowhard salesman trying to sell you a Kirby or something. Let the product do the talking, it actually works very well.

This massage ball is a God send!
I felt compelled to right a review about this product because I am thrilled with the results. Im 6'4'' 270 and I have very thick muscles and tissue and the MobilityWOD Supernova is the ONLY piece of equipment that has actually given me any tangible results. I've tried the lacrosse ball, baseball, softball, electronic stem pads at the chiropractors office, massage etc. None of those gave me any relief. The Supernova truly is a genius invention because it really does shear and dig deep into the tissues. I have deep, nasty knots throughout my upper back and glutes and therefore needed something that could get in very deep and break apart the trigger points. When I used the Supernova for the first time on my upper left back, I got results just after 10 minutes of therapy. My back felt as if it were on fire because of all the lactic acid and metabolic waste that was released from all the knots breaking apart. My massage therapist commented on how much looser my muscles are and how much easier it is for her to work on me. I will always have this massage ball from now on.
