hehehe agreed. I have often wondered about getting something to aid with my point. Though there are some less scary options 🙂

i saw another device once online that was wooden and i think you hold it with your hand as you stretch. I can't find it now!

From what I have heard, stretchy bands are the best way to work on your point. Cheap, and they require you to be actively working your foot while you are working on your point. But I have seen some other options on amazon:

foot strength:

Stretcher:

I know! They are kind of crazy looking. I think someone commented on the one you posted from discount dance that when they saw it they could only think of a wood chipper. Terrifying.
