Overview
The Wide Voodoo X Bands (co-developed by MobilityWOD) are high-performance compression tools designed for "flossing" large muscle groups and joints. Measuring 4 inches in width—twice the size of standard floss bands—these bands provide a larger treatment zone and more consistent, targeted compression. They are essential for athletes looking to improve range of motion, reduce swelling, and restore joint mechanics through high-pressure mobilization.

Key Features and Specifications

Black Band: 0.051" thickness (Standard compression).
Stretch Capacity: Can be stretched up to 150% of its original length.

Sold Individually: Each band is sold as a single unit.
Performance Benefits
Joint Mobilization: Helps "re-perfuse" stiff connective tissues and restore sliding surfaces in joints that have become restricted due to heavy training.
Swelling Reduction: The high-level compression helps move interstitial fluid and reduce minor swelling in the knees and ankles.
Dynamic Warm-Up: Can be worn while moving through a full range of motion (squats, lunges) to "wake up" tissues and improve neurological firing.
Recovery Acceleration: By temporarily restricting blood flow and then releasing it, the "rush" of new blood helps deliver oxygen and nutrients to the treated area to speed up recovery.
Maintenance and Care
Cleaning: Wipe the band down with a damp cloth and mild soapy water after use. Avoid using alcohol-based cleaners or harsh disinfectants, as these can cause the natural latex to dry out and crack.
Talc/Powder Application: If the band becomes overly "tacky" or sticky, a light dusting of cornstarch or non-talc baby powder will help it slide more easily and prevent it from sticking to itself.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. UV exposure is the primary cause of latex degradation and will lead to the band snapping prematurely.
Inspection: Before every use, stretch the band slightly to check for small nicks or tears along the edges. If any damage is found, discontinue use immediately to avoid injury from a snap.

Case-by-Case Review: Any specific issues regarding manufacturing defects will be reviewed by Rogue on a case-by-case basis for the original purchaser.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why would I choose the 4" Wide band over the standard 2" band? A: The 4" band is specifically designed for larger areas like the thighs and knees. It allows you to cover the treatment zone with fewer wraps and provides a more uniform compression than overlapping multiple smaller bands.
Q: Is there a difference between the Red and Black Wide Voodoo X Bands? A: Yes. The Red band is 0.060" thick, offering the highest level of compression. The Black band is slightly thinner at 0.051", which is better for those who need a bit more flexibility or are new to flossing.
Q: Can I use this if I have a latex allergy? A: No. These bands are made of natural latex rubber and should not be used by individuals with latex sensitivities.
Q: How long should I leave the band on? A: Flossing should typically be done for 1–2 minutes. If you experience numbness, tingling, or "pins and needles," remove the band immediately.
