Sportneer Balance Board - 7 Modes Wobble Board with Adjustable Stoppers - Exercise Balancing Stability Trainer for Improve Balance, Surf Trainer & Physical Therapy - Roller and 2.8'' Ball Included

My eight-year-old has been getting into skating and wanting me to skate with her. I could barely keep myself up, but had some friends tell me how important ankle strength was, so I started using a balance pad (just a block of foam that collapses in different ways under your feet). I could feel results really quickly, and then decided to add this to my repertoire.I've only had this for 2 days so far, but am really impressed with the quality and can feel many of the strains I feel when skating, so expect it to improve my balance a bit more quickly. The price was more than I had hoped to spend but, now that it's here, I believe it's absolutely worth the money both for quality and effectiveness. Not only that, but it's simply kinda fun to jump on for a few minutes randomly throughout the day.

This is an amazing balance board and an amazing company. Their customer service is first rate and the balance board itself is well-built and adjustable such that one can start off with the training wheels very much on, but as one gets better, one can move the rails, one can shift from the cylindrical balance bar to the balance ball. It's perfect.

I got this based on a YouTube video that seemed interesting. Surprisingly a decent workout so far. Very fun as well once you get used to it. I think it's quite worth it to get if you want to work on your balance and core strength.

High quality product. Our whole family loves this product. So many fun options and levels for all!

Good balance board with multiple difficulty levels for beginners to highly challenging for anyone. Size is perfect for use and easy storage. Get creative and you can use for balance and core workouts.

This thing is amazing, I've used the bosu style balance boards before and didn't really feel like it was that helpful with building your actual balance, but this thing is AMAZING! As an adult who's trying to learning new skills regularly this one was super fun for me to play with. We've had it about 2 months now and I use it ALL the time, it's super functional and is perfect for working on balance. The attachments it comes with are great for building lots of different skills with board balance that I hope will translate well to skateboarding and other board sports. The grip on the top is perfect, I've used it barefoot, with socks, and with shoes and it's great with all 3. Other boards like this were much more expensive and so I was nervous that this was so much cheaper but the quality is definitely there, great value for the money. I'm thinking about buying more so my kids and I can use it at the same time when we play.

Great quality - love all the options - exactly what I was looking for!

I love this thing! I'm 72 and an avid cyclist. My daughter, skilled on snow and skate board, introduced me to this. I was attracted to the side to side hip work, as opposed to the constant front to back of cycling, and the balance component. I've been a long term practitioner of standing on one foot to improve balance but this in a whole other league. It is definitely a lot harder than it looks. This will test your core in a whole new and very beneficial way.Note that I've only used to roller at right angle to the board. I find the middle stops best for starting out. At this point, I'm not interested in using the ball balancing or the roller parallel to the board.Here is my recommendation for getting started:1. Start on a rug. I use it on a medium pile carpet. There is a trade off between effort and stability depending on surface. As I'm getting better on this, I plan to progress to a thin rug then bare floor but this feels safest now. Safety is VERY important! You don't want to fall.2. I spent this first week doing this in front of something I could hold on to without bending over too much. In my case, I'm using a 6' high book shelf unit which is securely fastened to the wall (important!) to hold on to for stability. I use it in 3 minute sessions 3-4 times a day and this allowed me to be safe, get this feel of using the board, and start to build strength and activation of the muscles used with the board.3. As I got comfortable (after about 5 days) I started to work in short (few seconds) periods where I'd let go. It is amazing how even a light grip on something takes the load off the muscles needed for full side to side balancing.4. I've now worked up to the point where I do a 3 min workout without needing any stability grabs. but I'm not yet able to get a smooth side to side seesaw that is the goal. I believe this will come as this work builds the hip and core muscles that are used.5. Be patient. Even if you are only letting go of your support short periods you will be amazed at the muscles you are working.All in all, great fun and is a great way to improve balance. Balance is an important and often neglected component of health and well being for us older folk.
