Snow Inspired:
The Powder Original is designed to feel like you are on the slopes. The wide ends stabilize the board while the skinny middle moves fast. It really feels like you are floating on air. Feel you momentum easily shift from the center and grab on because the forward and backward board tilt is massive. The tilt really works your ankle range of motion and full body control to stay upright. The unique shape also helps with aerial control. Practice 360 spins on the board and maintain your balance.
Dig In Deep:
Keep a narrow stance similar to snowboarding or get stretched out into a wide squat. Train your muscles to react with a variety of hip angles and dig in deep for board grabs in the middle or take it to the ends. With enough space for two balls or half balls you will feel the board slide forward and tilt like being on the edge. Perfect for off season training.
The Powder Original features a steel rail system that allows you to create 16 different types of boards. A perfect balance board for learning skill progression. Create your own unique combo that suits your needs. Add Balls and Half Balls for your training. Features a steel rail system you can attach Resistance Bands or a BOSU to expand your exercise routine.
3" Mini Ball:
Use this ball inside of the 6.5" Half Ball and create a Thrasher combo for advanced and unpredictable training.
5" Small Balls:
These balls work the best on this small rail size. They are fast for riding to the edge and giving you enough forward and backward motion. Use one ball for a multi-direction board for a high level of movement. Create a double pivot board by using two 5" Small Balls for a easier skill progression or to work on extreme board tilt.
6.5" Medium Balls:
As you progress you should consider this larger ball. You can get up nice and high off the ground, carve turns without grounding the board and get even more extreme tilt.
6.5" Half Balls:
This size Half Ball gives you enough tilt for a beginning balance board. Use one for a wobble board tilting in all directions. Two of the 6.5" will fit under the board to create a rocker board for basic movement. Half balls allow you to progress from the basics of balance or multi-task in complex motions as you progress. Use a 3" Mini Ball and 6.5" Half Ball for the Thrasher and Rock and Roll combos. Use a 5" Small Ball and 6.5" Half Ball for the Big Drop combo. Specialty combos are great for unpredictable training and quick reaction like landing your tricks.
Resistance Band System:
This Original board features a steel rail system that anchors the Resistance Bands System. Perfect for adding greater body awareness and posture control as the bands pull you down toward the board. Use the handles and foot straps to take any exercise move and expand the challenge.
BOSU Strap System:
Place your board on the BOSU and secure it with our strap system. The unique movement is gentle and feels like floating on water. Great for movement sequences from quadruped to full standing, landing jump progressions or partner drills.
Elysia's Notes:
The Powder Original is such a unique balance board to ride. The small rail is great for a small stance and staying narrow. The added board length challenges you to reach for the ends for a board grab for great flexibility and squat control. I love having two balls under the board and seeing how far I can tilt the board and how long I can hold the position. It is fast but smooth and really makes you feel like you are floating on air.

1. Rocker Board: 2 Half Balls
Place Half Balls flat side up for faster tilt. Using two creates a Rocker Board that tilts in 2 directions - Left and Right for example. The farther the Half Balls are from one another, the more stable the surface. You can place them very close together for more challenge. This is great for holding a position and rocking the board left and right to activate your muscle coordination.
2. Wobble Board: 1 Half Ball
Place 1 Half Ball under your board and it will tilt in all directions and allow you to twist the board. Place in the center for an equal weight distribution. Place to the side and you will activate the side directly over the Half Ball. This is great for developing strength on one side if it is weaker or unable to function the same after an injury.
3. Single Pivot Board: 1 Half Ball and 1 Ball
Place 1 Half Ball under the left side of the board and 1 Ball under the right side of the board. The left side will tilt front to back and the right side will pivot or slide forward and backward. A great progression to learning how to activate hip rotation on a moving board on one side of your body.
Best set up: 3" Ball and 6.5" Half Ball or 5" Ball and 8.5" Half Ball
4. Double Pivot Board: 2 Balls
Use 2 of the same sized ball under your board to activate each side in rotation. Placing the Balls close is more difficult. You will get multi-direction motion without the extreme tilting from left to right feet. A perfect combo for advanced skills like surf pop-up, quadruped, deep squats and adding difficult upper body battle rope exercises while maintaining balance.
5. Multi-Direction Board: 1 Ball
The heart of the Si Board is riding on 1 Ball for a multi-direction platform. The freedom to move left/right, front/back, twist, diagonal, clockwise/counterclock and 360 spins all at the same time. This is the most advanced balance board skill to learn fine motor skill and full body awareness.
6. Rock and Roll: Small Ball inside of Half Ball x 2
Placing a small Ball inside the Half Ball creates two moving surfaces. The small Ball rolls around inside of the Half Ball. The Half Ball is placed flat side up and creates a rocking or wobble motion. Four moving surfaces that keep you level and don't allow the board to roll to extremes. You feel all surfaces continuously knock into each other abruptly. Perfect for deep stance endurance simulating rough water and windy conditions.
Use these combos:
7. Thrasher: Small Ball inside of Half Ball x 1
Placing a small Ball inside the Half Ball creates two moving surfaces. The small Ball rolls around inside of the Half Ball. The Half Ball is placed flat side up and creates a rocking or wobble motion. Two moving surfaces that give you extreme tilts in all direction with slight board rolling. Perfect for holding your push-up position against an opponent and a narrow squat with very quick foot reactions.
Use these combos:
8. Ball Big Drop: Medium Ball fixed tight inside a large Half Ball
Wedge a Ball inside the Half Ball so that the two parts do not move. You have two different sized balance points and this gets you up high off the ground. You will teeter/hover around and just as the Half Ball gets to the edge you will feel a fast drop to the ground. Reaction to this feels like a sudden drop and being able to control landing on you sport board.
Use these combos:
Add Resistance for Greater Body Awareness:
Mastering your Si Board on the Balls and Half Balls is a big challenge. Now it's time to add resistance and fight the downward forces towards the board. Anchor the straps anywhere along the steel rail, attach the resistance band and then add the handles or foot straps. You can have resistance from any angle and keep your body guessing what's next. This stimulates more posture awareness and strength to keep your position.
Combo With Your Sports Equipment:
Make it more sport specific by strapping your sports equipment to the end our resistance band. Imagine a tennis racquet, baseball bat, steel mace or kettlebell in your hands being pulled downward toward the board. Then keep your position with the added balance challenge of any of the 8 board set-ups mentioned above. Sounds like one awesome exercise!
Gentle Movement Flow and Landing Your Jumps:
Sometimes you need a more forgiving balance board compared to our very responsive Balls and Half Balls. Strap your Si Board to a BOSU to get the sensation of floating on air. Movement flow is easier and more fluid. Perfect for partner drills, going from horizontal to vertical exercises, beginners learning balance and advanced athletes adding jumps and other equipment.
Use A Burst Resistance Stability Ball:
You can also add a burst resistance Stability Ball under the board and strap it in. We use a 55 cm that is deflated 1/4. This is a very advanced set-up when standing or jumping on the board. This is a great skill progression for learning push-ups, dips or bridges.
Please note:
Use a BOSU and burst resistant Stability Ball in good condition. Check for defects or damage before using and follow all safety guidelines. We are not responsible for damage to your exercise equipment or injury. Exercise within your skill level, with a spotter and safety equipment.
