Abstract: A balance board includes an elongated, generally rigid board having a top surface, a bottom surface, and upwardly-angled distal ends and upwardly-angled side edges. The bottom surface of the board has a center plane that extends longitudinally between areas of the bottom surface proximate the upwardly-angled distal ends. The width of the center plane is defined by the upwardly-angled side edges. The bottom surface of the board is at least partially coated with a frictional material. A balance board system includes a cylindrical roller, preferably having a uniform cross-sectional size and shape along its length. The roller is formed of a smooth, rigid material. The system allows extreme tricks and moves by a rider of the board on the roller.
