Surf Inspired:
Get our popular design in the Surf Starter and zero in on the next wave. We shaved weight off the nose to carve a turn with quicker precision compared to our elliptical models. The stable fish/swallow tail keeps your base grounded as you whip this board in, out and around. Bump up your dry land training and your next session will be amazing.
Get Your Feet Wet:
Large ride stance area can be used directly over the bolt holes or moved out another 6" inches to the ends. Plenty of space for two balls or half balls for upper body exercises. Pop up moves will require you to keep a narrow landing stance over to the rail with this model. This board will allow a variety of moves and positions
Get Started Here:
Create your own unique combo with this board. Add the Balls and Half Balls that meet your training needs. Features an adjustable rail that can be lengthened or shortened in 4" inch sections. A great board choice for those who will grow with their board and want to practice a wide range of stances.
3" Mini Balls:
3" Mini Ball is quick, responsive and requires fine tuning of your movements. With little board tilt and a ton of forward and backward ride space, your board control will always be challenged to stay level. Staying centered is no easy feat with this Mini Ball. Combine both balls under the board for the double pivot system for skill progression
5" Small Balls:
5" Small ball makes the transition from smooth moves to fast turning very easy. Enough space for forward and backward motion to give you 360o degrees of free movement. Get up high with lots of board tilt and feel your hips control the board. This combo is fun and responsive.
5" Half Balls:
5" Half Balls are great for practicing pop ups and plank walking at the beginner level. Create your own rocker or wobble board and combine lower body balance with upper body complex moves.
6.5" Half Balls:
6.5" Half Ball gives you greater board tilt and ability to rotate on the half ball. Perfect for developing your carving and rotation power as you kick this board around. Place the 3" Mini Balls inside of the 6.5" Half Ball to create the Thrasher or Rock and Roll advanced combo. Place the 5" Ball inside the 6.5" Half Ball to create the Big Drop combo. These are both great for unpredictable movements to simulate rough water or windy conditions.
Customize Your Balance Board!
All Si Boards Starter Boards come with an adjustable urethane rail. All parts are interchangeable with the same interlocking joint system. Starter Boards come with a smaller rail compared to the Original Boards and give you the option to extend your rail to the maximum ride space. Progress or regress your ride space based on your skills.
Can I Use 4" Extensions?
Yes! This extension length gives your 24" of ride space. If using existing hole configuration your rail will be offset more to the back or front of the board. An offset rail will focus your ride skills to either the back or front of the board. If you want a centered rail you will need to drill a completely new hole pattern.
Can I use 8" Extensions?
Yes! This is the best Rail Extension length. This gives you maximum ride space to 28" similar to our Surf Original board. The rail will be centered and 6 new holes will need to be drilled. It is best to use the 5" Small Ball and 6.5" Half Ball for optimal performance.
Elysia's Notes:
Most new Si Boarders chose this board because they want to learn how to surf or want to stay in shape between sessions. Many added the 8" rail extensions to get a wider stance. I love this board for the large ride surface and small compact rail. It stores easily and fits into bags for travel. I know I can train a variety of users in full body moves and rotational control.
Si Boards are built for ultimate exercise versatility, skill progression and to be your everlasting balance board system. Our Starter Boards are a great introduction to balance training for beginners, training on the go and as a fun family activity. You will create a truly functional exercise program using our Balls and Half Balls.

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:
Children should always be supervised. Use safety googles and equipment with proper tool use.

I am interested in purchasing your Surf Starter 7 in 1 Large Economy Package I was wondering if you could give me a cost to ship to Australia & an estimated timeframe.
Unfortunately, Australia has some size restrictions at an economical price for shipping. To ship the Surf Starter it would be around $350.
A few other options would be our Freestyle board which has the same rail as the Surf but 6" shorter. Our Phil Rajzman board is a compact surf training board that is very fun and responsive to ride. The shipping for these would range from $150 - $200 depending on the balls and half balls.
We have many Australia customers who purchase a rail kit and create their own boards or modify an existing balance board. Shipping a kit would be $90 - $115 using a flat rate box and again depending on the additional items you put in there.
Do you have the ability to make your own board top?
If so this is a second option.
I would suggest our DIY rail kit with 8" Extensions- it will be a better fit for both of your heights. Then adding 2 3" Balls and 2 6.5" Half Balls. This would be $305 with $115 shipping = $420. With this set up you can create 7 different combos and get endless training variety and skill progression from beginner to advanced. This would be the easiest way for you to get started and build a board size similar to our Surf Starter.
If you wanted a board it would be best to ship our medium Freestyle Starter board. It is 6 inches shorter than the Surf Starter. Still a great board and both of you could use it. It might be a little small for you if doing full body moves on there- being on your hands and feet at the same time. For overall training though it would be a great option and you can get started immediately. Shipping this board and the items I mentioned above would be $595 for the items and $150 for shipping = $745.
These are the two best options:
Build your board and have all the balls and half balls you need for complete training - $520
Slightly smaller Freestyle Starter board with all the balls and half balls for complete training - $745
