Indoboard Balance Trainers: "The Sport for Everyone, Everywhere!"

The first prototype of the Indoboard was originally designed by Indoboard creator Hunter Joslin in 1975.  The balance board was first created to help train surfers when they were out of the water, then eventually evolved  in a balance trainer that not only strengthens users' legs and balance, but also their overall core muscles.  Today, the Indoboard is loved by enthusiasts both young and old.  Many athletes from the surf, snowboard, skate and fitness worlds rely on the Indoboard to strengthen their balance and also as a form of entertainment when they are not participating in their respective sports. 



After many prototypes and numerous tests, the Indoboard was finally trademarked and patented in the the Autumn of 1998 and officially presented at the Surf Expo in Orlando, Florida.  You don't have to be an "expert" or an athlete to enjoy Indoboards.  According to the Indoboard website, anyone can use an Indoboard by correctly following the instructions and initially having something to hold onto for support.  The ultimate goal in using an Indoboard is to keep the board itself from touching the ground for an extended period of time.  The website says the learning curve is usually around 10 to 15 minutes.
