You can go cheap and take your chances with a hardware store ladder stabilizer or use the ladder stabilizer that AC built. His is not flimsy, it is much beefier and stronger. For roofs the stability of the stabilizer can not be beat. There is no flipping of the ladder. The only problem I have had with this stabilizer is when I needed to put the ladder in a tight space. The reason why the stabilizer is so stable is because it is wide.

I agree! I picked one up in Orlando and love mine! I have also found it help to prevent ladder dings on stucco/Dryvit, due to the large diameter tube and padded rubber!
