Air compression for ultra recovery… anyone using something besides Normatec?

Been digging through older threads and everything’s basically Normatec. don’t get me wrong, it’s solid. but man… the price and dealing with hoses everywhere is annoying, especially during races or travel

noticed lately there are more wireless options popping up. I’ve been using a wireless pair frost fit for a bit. no pump, no tubes, just throw them on. that alone made me use them way more tbh

not saying it’s better or anything, just easier to actually stick with for ultra stuff specifically… feels like it helps more with that swollen feeling after long mileage

also way easier to use in random places. car, hotel, wherever. no setup headache. anyone else using boots regularly for ultra training?

do you guys use them more for multi-day stuff or just after long runs?

so what's actually working for ya
