Default Balance Trainer?

I just decided to make myself a balance trainer! Ok i will admit i did get bored with work!
Anyway!
It worked quite well and i will be open for business! ( Only joking! ) On a serious note though i thought i would tell you how i did it! it only took 5 mins so was pretty easy! i have pictures at http://photos.wakeboard.com/showgall...00&ppuser=1891

ok
1)I got a piece of think wood! Any thickness as long as it holds your weight! also any lenght and width! I had some left over from when the builders quit!
2)Get a peice of old or new, plastic drain pipe. This could be left like it comes or could have a peice of wood or somthing inside to keep form buckling!
3) i added to smaller peices of wood the the big peice so it didnt roll over the ends.

4 (optional) You could put towels or somthing around the pipe to keep it more sturdy or so it doesnt damage the carpet!

5) go have fun!

Hope this helps or atleast makes u laugh at me!
Lol

get a longer piece of wood, and don't put stopers on the ends.
