Indo board

Also known as balance board, is a device used for recreation, balance training, athletic training, brain development, therapy, musical training and other kinds of personal development. It is a lever similar to a see-saw that the user usually stands on with the left and right foot at opposite ends of the board.

Balance is one of the key skills for surfing, you may use the surf camp balance boards for improving your balance skills.
