DIY Balance Board


So I've been wanting to get an Indo Board for quite a while but can't see myself spending the money on one just in case it never gets used. I have a small skim board that I think would work fine for balancing on, and I'm gonna get a couple different sizes of ABS piping (2" and 3") for the rollers. I thinking that I might have to carpet the pipes and maybe build some sort of stoppers on the ends of the skim board but on the cheap side of things I think it will work. If anyone here has done this before, or have any experience with at balance board that could give any tips please give them, kinda experimenting with what I have.:wee:



what I fly/ride:
19m Flysurfer Speed 2 SA
12m Flysurfer Speed2
6m Ozone access xt
1.5m Ozone imp trainer
144cm Airush Switch
152cm lib tech skate banana
MBS Pro 90
Jereme Leafe Pro 95

How to build a balance board (SD)

Would stay away from the soda bottle version.... saving money is one thing, but that's just too iffy

Let me know if you have problems getting to it.

ATB,
Sam
