On Friday April 24th the day before PEAK, we got to take part in a special demonstration of how to use Indoboards. These boards are kind of like a mixture between a skateboard and a surfboard. They are placed on a round beam type thing and you balance on it. They are fairly new on the school scene and help students with creating balance. We got to try them out for ourselves and all I can say is wow! They are pretty difficult initially but once you get the hang of it they can be a lot of fun! The trick is to keep a low center of gravity and not to hunch over. Keep your back straight and look forward and you will be able to stay balanced. Once I got that down I was able to roll back and forth and get it moving. Needless to say, I was pretty proud of myself for doing that!
