sean Posted March 2, 2011 pretty cool! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ldc3zDtLU18&NR=1 Â i'm frequently drawn to movements like this while standing, sitting, lying down, swimming, etc. Â but i really like the possibilities this "exploreboard" thing opens up. Â can't find much info on them, but looks like they run $1500. Â now i'm wondering what other kinds of tools could facilitate movement exploration like this.

joeblast Posted March 2, 2011 1500 bucks! For that thing in the vid?? Â bah, I'd find the appropriate structural metal pieces and get out the sawsall and the drill and make one! Then ya just have to find some proper soft padding... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeblast Posted March 2, 2011 I wonder what became of all that metal behind the garage the metal structure is the easy part - finding the cushions would be harder, at least in my head Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sean Posted March 2, 2011 the thing is, i'd want to feel certain that the structure was rock solid, not going to budge an inch, and absolutely not going to fall over or break while i am in some kind of bizarre, vulnerable position. Â sean Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trunk Posted March 2, 2011 I was browsing a gym supply store once and they had those round pads. I bought a couple and with a strap, short 2x4 and some pipe I built a leg support to attach to my weight bench at home. So I can do simple back extensions and extended situps (theoretically, I never do extended situps). It's not as wild as the video, but gives some possibility, cheap.

Otis Posted March 5, 2011 Great share, Sean, thanks! It's important to my body, to explore movement from as many different directions as possible. This definitely seems to focus on movement pathways that I have a hard time getting into, on my own. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
