Ab Rollers?

Now that the Ab Roller or Ab Machine fad has passed, I am seeing more and more of them at yard sales, and even for free in people's yards. I have tried them, and they do seem to tire my abs out faster than without. But is it somehow shortchanging the whole exercise? What is anyone's viewpoint on these things?
 
Ab rollers are one of THE most effective devices out there for your core. When you can do a standing roll out and come all the way back up, your core will be stronger than anything you can achieve with crunches or any other ab device.



Watch this video clip of Ross doing his thing with ab rollers and then tell me if you think it's short changing the exercise
 
start from knees with short range of motion and once you get to full stetch range of motion knees, try from feet with same progression
