Revolution Swell 2.0 | Surf & Paddle Balance Board Trainer

I've only had it a few days and I've been using it constantly. It's definitely challenging and awesome on your legs. As an avid kite/snow/longboarder, I needed something like this to give me something to do at home.I spend every second on it if I'm watching a show or playing a video game. My balance has already improved a bit and I can feel it working my leg muscles! I've started attempting some spins and squats as well. Definitely adds to the workout.Water sport enthusiasts, this is great for you because the stops on the bottom can be swapped to the long edges, which allows you to work on wave-type balance scenarios.With the stoppers off completely it's even MORE challenging, and you can twist and turn to your heart's content.Only "complaint" (which is negligible) is that the blue part of the board is a different material that gets a bit slippery if you're on it barefoot. But it's only after you've been on it long enough for your feet to sweat, and even then - just wear socks!It's very comfortable to stand on, very sturdy wood with soft and durable foam on top, and the roller hasn't damaged my hardwood floor even with all of my falling!Anyway, I highly recommend this to beginners or advanced balance boarders, as it can be changed to work for you. Also great for snowboarders who struggle with rail balance, and surfers (and basically any board sport). And it's pretty!

The balance board came in shrinkwrap plastic in great condition, sturdy thick plywood with a thin soft foam surface on top. The box it came in needed more tape but the product was well protected with multiple layers of brown packaging paper. Opted for the Swell model for the larger surface area and potential surfer mode. We read the simple instructions and immediately switched the black tabs with a screw driver into the alternate non-surfer mode. Wow, it's more difficult then we thought^^! For a newbie who has never used a balance board before, it looks to be a fun acitivity to learn but the board was definitely pounding the hard wood floors with great frequency due to my lack of skill. The instructions recommended the use of the board on carpet or a floor mat, so that's the next purchase on the list.

Everything about the Revolution Swell is a marked improvement over balance boards I have used in the past. Roller height and board length seem to be dialed in perfectly. The diameter of the pin makes for a responsive ride and allows the Swell to be implemented as a great pop up trainer. The "Pro" model of a competitor's board I have used in the past has a much larger roller, which made for a sloppy slow ride. The thin padding (soft trak) atop the board is grippy enough for barefoot use but in no way obtrusive. Other products had a textured top coat or were left bare which I found to be less then ideal, especially when practicing the pop up. When new users are introduced to the Revolution the removable stoppers are a valuable addition, the board is less likely to go flying across the room due to an overcorrection from the rider. Removal of the stoppers allows me to rotate the board 90˚ under foot, as to go from the board being parallel with the roller to perpendicular. Instead of a carpet i find the use of a think yoga mat to be preferable. The dense mat keeps the wood floor protected but gives me the speed and responsiveness I am looking for. All in all I am very satisfied with the purchase and will most likely be purchasing the Core32.

I decided to get a balance board to improve my surfing. I have been trying to learn how to walk to the nose, cross-step, hang-5, etc. and thought that some practice on land would help me progress to the next level in the water. Before buying this balance board, I reviewed many different balance boards on the market. I chose this one because it is the only board that allows for 2 different orientations, which seems best for practicing the footwork I want to master. Also it is at a more reasonable price point than the Goof Board - which was the other board I was considering. I have had the board for 3 days and I have already noticed improvement in my balance and I am getting more confident moving my feet around on the board.

I ordered the product last Thursday. I got it today and tried it. It works very well. Literally amazing. I was considering to buy 6/5/4 suit for surf from February to April or to but this for indoor exercise all year around. I feel I made the right decision, It will be a great exercise while waiting for next season. Thanks, manufacturer.

I needed to replace a less expensive, wooden balance board that started to fall apart after a few years. I wasn’t sure about dropping the cash for this one. Turns out this board is amazing and worth every penny. The easily adjustable magnetic stoppers are a killer feature, letting you switch your stance in seconds. I surf and snowboard so the ability to use this in two positions was really important to me and it definitely exceeds my expectations. The size and shape of the board is perfect and allows for some creative workouts. It’s way better than my last one. Excited to start working on pop-ups with Revolution Swell 2.0. I highly recommend this board!!!
