I probably have a few sessions left but it seems like im going to be back on the indo board for the year, minus snow skating, but at least its something to get me through the winter. Indo boards are awesome. Just wait the sport is progressing. haha, on the website a kid has a picture of a variel flip and a kickflip. Pretty crazy

Indo boards are the best training tool that Ive ever used. My skimboarding and wakeskating balance has definetly increased. It helps more than i can tell you guys. Indo sells a thin long kicktail that is incredible and the pop you can get off this is insane. Double kickflips,3 shuvs, 540 shuvits, and just plain balance. If you guys are into strength training or rehabing anything with knees ankles or legs try the indo flow it helped me with my broken ankle like no doctor or rehabilitation specialist could.

Big country, are you serious man? What board do you have? I wana see you in action man, sounds crazy

Ive been riding them for around 4 years now. I actually ride for them and have been published in Surfer magazine and the past 4 Skim magazines. They really do help and if you take a actual skate deck with concave your balance becomes gnarly because not only does it move from back to front but also spins without you wanting it to. I have some pretty funny videos of my friends trying stuff on it and eating some serious shizzle.

big country, iam going to get an indo board soon which one do you suggest i should get?

Well heres the thing if your wanting to do tricks get the kicktail long board. If your getting it just for balance get the actual indo board because you can do alot more with that balance wise than you can with the kicktail because there are stoppers on it. The kicktail however is alot of fun to use because you can actually use it like a skateboard by letting the tail hit the ground as your pop letting you try kickflips and other stuff like that. I use a skatedeck to learn foot cordination with spin tricks because not only does it spin like hell, but its smaller so you learn foot placement with your landings.

lake weir ocala FL fck yeah you can use a wakeskate as your indo board, if you close your eyes, wear your lifejacket and have someone splash you in the face when you fall.............you may really think you're out on the water

yeah thats the Long kicktail one that I was talking about. And the picture of the kid riding it is sick hes riding the indo skate deck with the small roller. Those are alot easier to do tricks with but not as much difficulty when balancing. That roller is mainly used just for the skate deck
