I was extremely impressed with the Buckley AFB fitness center.  On a quick tour I peaked into the gym, walked past the raquet ball courts (1 of which was converted for Crossfit and in addition to a rig and squat stands, plenty of wights and bars, they also had a GHD)

The primary workout room was equally impressive with benches, practical machines, a Reverse Hyper and a deadlift platform.

I did not realize it at the time, but bands and even chains could be checked out from the front desk.

Most impressive was a recovery area, complete with Normatec boots and Hyperice equipment including Hypervolt, Vyper and Hypersphere.

Crossfit Golden has a couple of Hypervolts which retail for $349.  The Vyper is a vibrating foam roller and retails for $199.  The Hypersphere seems a little intense but is the cheapest of the lot, retailing for $149.

I am still waiting to find a venue that has a Swiss Wing.  These $10K recovery products that I was turned onto by Brian Shaw seem pretty incredible. 

Normatec Boots are now retailing for $1300 and are much more compact than the set up I purchased about 5 years ago for $1400.
