The Original Indo Board Training Package - Balance Board Trainer for Core Strength, Stability & Athletic Performance - Surfing, Skateboarding, Snowboarding, Yoga, Physical Therapy & More. Includes Board, Cushion and Roller.

I'm so glad I bought the beautiful Bamboo beach print, because have been spending a lot of time on it lately and love the pattern. If I do watch TV, this is used during commercials and I end up staying on the board and turning TV off. I never used the flo cushion, just went right to the cylinder, but I'd advise caution if you haven't had experience with board/balance sports before. If in doubt, definitely try the cushion out first. **Important to know that you can have some nasty falls on the board, because of the physics involved in riding on a cylinder**. So know that before getting on. However, this board is a great training tool and lots of fun while getting stronger, more nimble and agile on the board. Sure brings me lots of smiles to be getting the feeling of 'surfing' 'long rides' while not even paddling out or putting on a wetsuit, but ok, there's no real substitute for surfing, but skills here are applicable to surfing. The DVD gives some great tips and training. I enjoy the girl he uses as a surfing model, she's great and really liked the Rocky Snyder interview. Rocky's legit and knows his stuff. (I have his "Fit to Surf" book and it's great). Indo board also gives helpful handouts that show right and wrong way to do it, as well as lots of accurate, legit balance training exercises. Indo board is a really well-made product and made here in USA!!! Love the surface texture and how heavy and well-made it is. I really enjoy 'riding' my board as often as possible.

My husband talked me into getting one of these for our daughter's birthday. Really, he just wanted one for himself. Our daughter is a little small for the original still at 4, but she can do the cushion on her own. She likes the roller too, but someone has to hold her hands and help for now. But as I said, mostly it was for my husband, who is not at all in shape but used to surf and skateboard when he was younger. He has a lot of fun on it and found it pretty easy to get started. Most surprising is that I absolutely love this thing. The first time I used it, I was embarrassed and used it maybe 5 minutes before deciding I'd mess with it some other time when there wasn't an audience. The second time I had fun, but did a lot of holding on to our low ceiling. By the third time I used it, I wasn't so embarrassed since I could stay on a while and get back up much easier. I'm still no pro but I love using it, and it's a surprisingly good workout. I'm overweight and trying to get healthier, and I'm so glad my husband pushed for this thing. We've actually ordered another one (just a deck & roller this time) so that we don't fight over whose turn it is, and I'm pretty sure I've sold my cousin on buying one as well. Side note: the first one we received had cracks in the paint and customer service quickly replaced the deck with a new one with no problems.

Great workout

Shopping for a balance training board was overwhelming because there are so many to choose from at many different prices. As an ambitious beginner, I wanted something that would last me a while but not be too advanced for my level. I finally chose this board because I felt it matched what I wanted and the design was too gorgeous to pass up, and it's just as perfect in my living room as it looked online. I wanted a board that would let me ride nose to tail and rail to rail, and this board can handle that, although there are only stoppers nose to tail. I cannot stop getting on this board because it's so much fun, such a great workout, and it helps quell my surfing lust.

I was 14 years old when I first saw an Indo Board at a mall. At the time I didn’t know what it was. All I knew was that it looked like fun. I did some research and learned more about it and since that day, I wanted one. 23 years later, I was finally able to purchase one. And I am glad I did! I am having so much riding on it! Getting up on the board took me a few minutes to get used to, but I was able to get on fairly easily. Hurting yourself is definitely a possibility if you aren’t paying attention or trying to show off when you’re first starting. My kids love it, my friends are saving up to buy one, and I can’t wait to be able to afford the next skill level board up. (Hopefully it doesn’t take me another 23 years to get it lol!) Thank you Indo Board!

Bought as a gift for my husband. The design is beautiful, it is well constructed and he says it is a fun way to work on balance and strength. When not in use we plan to use it as a wall hanging. It really is a work of art. *Note: I think I would want a padded room to use it or an open area away from furniture or things that might hurt if you fell into it. It does take a good bit of balance and co-ordination. It is a serious piece of workout equipment. Don't just jump on it without preparing your surroundings (ie remove anything you might hit when you fall off) and be prepared for the possibility of falling off. My husband got the hang of it pretty quickly.

I purchased the board, roller, and cushion. At first, I thought that the cushion would really just be a transition to the roller but it's not; it's way more than that. The cushion provides 360 degree motion vice just back and forth on the roller - which may not sound like much but give it a try; this is some work. Ever had sore ankles?! I used the cushion first for a couple of days and then tried the roller. It has been a couple of weeks and I can do three squats on the roller in a row without touching! I can't quite go completely from one side to the other...but almost! I go back and forth between the cushion and roller regularly to change up the exercise. It's great for adding a stability/core workout to pushups, setups, curls, etc. I'm a somewhat fit late 50's female so if I can do it, you probably can too! :) It's really fun and I've been inspired to get on an actual skateboard. You can go all zen on it...or you can watch TV...great, flexible workout/balance trainer.

First let me say that using this board is NOT easy!!! I watched all the videos on YouTube before ordering and thought, 'hey that looks pretty easy, I bet I could figure that out.' Well, after sever falls and a steep learning curve I can say that while I can't really do any "tricks" I can successfully balance on this board. It does give your abs one hellofa workout, and really helped get rid of some love handles in a fun way. But don't expect to hop on and master this thing in one afternoon. I might also add that it would be a good idea to order a few more pieces to go along with this set. Specifically the smaller cylinder. It will make the transition between these two pieces a lot easier. Also, this might go without saying (for some people, not me though, I had to learn the hard way) that this MUST BE USED ON CARPET!!!!!! You will fall and bust your face, ass and whatever else if you try this on wood floors.

Solid, well made equipment. For me, it's definitely worth buying the cushion as well as the roller. The cushion gives 360 degrees of movement and so challenges your body in far more directions than the roller. I've also found standing on the cushion to be a good exercise (especially for ankle stability). You will need a bit of room to use the Indoboard, especially while you get used to it. I find a corridor at home to be good, especially for people who've not used it before - they can hold the wall to help steady themselves. Alternatively it's great on a mat (like a yoga mat) in the garden or park. A mat is also useful at home if you are using it on a surface like a laminate floor. The seller was very good - they responded very quickly to questions and went out of their way to resolve a delivery issue caused by the courier.

Exactly as expected, well priced. Use this to help strengthen ankles and knee stability and overall balance!

We bought this board after a recommendation from our wake surf coach that this was a great way to train when we can't get out on the water. We added it to our gym a few weeks ago, and have already used it a ton (and seen some major improvements in our on the water performance). The board is super sturdy, a great design, and other than some minor delays in the delivery, has met all our expectations. Even our 12 and 4 year old boys have been practicing on it, and it's definitely helping them with their overall balance/coordination. A great piece of equipment that is also pretty addicting to use. Would definitely recommend.

I looked at this for over a year. I don't surf but do standup paddle and was looking for something to keep me sharp. This is amazing. HIGHLY recommend checking out videos of people eating it - if you don't think your body can take those types of spills - this is not for you. It's fast. You will fall. It does hurt. BUT I love it.

Love it, fun to train on
