So my friend decided to take me surfing for the first time the other day and it was such a blast.. Although im not very good yet.. he says i need to work on my balance.. Does anyone know of an exercise or some type of equipment that would help me work on my balance when im at home?? This way next time i can actually stand on the board for more then a second..

    Standing on one leg is a good way to start.

    Standing on cushion or a squidgy tennis ball is another.

    Yoga would be good.

    The Wii Fit! I went on there and it told me my balance was terrible and asked me if I trip over a lot (which I do, sob). But it helps you get more balanced! V expensive though :no:
