Performance Benefits
Progressive Difficulty: The Magswitch system allows beginners to start with a short, safe rolling distance, while experienced users can expand the range as their stability increases.
Core Activation: Effectively engages the transverse abdominis and small stabilizer muscles that are often neglected in traditional strength training.
Improved Proprioception: Sharpens the body's internal sense of balance and position, which translates directly to improved performance in sports like surfing, skating, and weightlifting.
Multi-Surface Use: The DuraSoft top is safe for use on indoor flooring without causing the scratches or scuffs typically associated with standard griptape.
Maintenance and Care
Cleaning the DuraSoft Top: Wipe the surface with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove perspiration or dust. Do not use abrasive scrubbing pads, as they are unnecessary and may dull the finish.
Roller Integrity: Keep the roller free of hair, dirt, and debris. Small particles can cause "bumps" during use or scratch the underside of the board.
Stop System Check: Periodically verify that the Magswitches are fully engaged before starting a session to ensure the safety stops stay in place.
Dry Storage: Store the board in a temperature-controlled environment. Avoid damp basements or garages, as excessive moisture can affect the wood-based core of the board over time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Do I need to wear shoes to use the Revbalance 101 v2? No. The DuraSoft grip top was specifically designed to be comfortable and secure for barefoot training, unlike the sandpaper-like texture of traditional balance boards.
Q: Can the safety stops be completely removed? Yes. Once an athlete has mastered the board, the Magswitch stops can be taken off to allow for full-freedom rolling and 360-degree tricks.
Q: Is this board safe for my hardwood floors? The DuraSoft top and the roller materials are designed to be non-marking. However, using the board on a yoga mat or small rug is always a good practice for extra protection and noise reduction.
Q: How does this differ from the Revbalance FIT? The 101 v2 focuses primarily on the board-and-roller experience. The FIT model is a 3-in-1 system that includes additional bases like the Rocker and Air Cushion for varied movement styles.
