Large CoolBoard, Ball & Disc

The worlds best 2in1 balance board can take you from zero to hero.  The Disc is there for the days when you just want some simple, pleasurable & beneficial balance movement.  Great for beginners, physiotherapy, and standing desks.  The Ball is there to add an extra dimension, always a little challenge, incredibly beneficial and highly addictive!

Large Size Board

Preferred by larger people, the Large CoolBoard gives plenty of space for foot positioning.  For when on the Ball it has a good sized ring to give you plenty of balance movement, but not too much!  Shoe sizes UK7+ EU41+ US8+ can take the Ball anywhere in the ring without quite reaching your balance limit.  Board size has little effect when used on the Disc.

Also liked by smaller people who are adventurous and / or into boardsports.  When on the Ball the bigger ring will allow you to push beyond your limits!  If the board is to be shared by a mix of shoe sizes I generally recommend this Large size and just warn the smaller footed people to be aware and keep it more centred when on the Ball.

70 x 36 x 2.5cms, 3.0kgs.  Recommended max weight: 200kgs

Disc

The beauty of the Discs is the movement they give.  Traditional wobble boards suffer with very no/off movement, often impossible to keep level and frustrating to use.  Our inflatable Discs offer a far more progressive and rounded movement, so CoolBoard on Disc is far more enjoyable, encouraging you to use and benefit from it.

Both Discs are high quality and fully adjustable with the included pump, so you can increase the balance challenge as your skills and strengths grow.  With an almost flat 40cm Disc we have helped recovering stroke victims.  With a highly inflated 30cm Disc we’ve pushed Olympians!

Ball

Gorgeous, silky, addictive movement…   ‘feels like a hoverboard’ is a common comment.  There is just nothing like the joyous movement of this Ball, you’ve got to try it to believe it.

The Standard Speed Medium Size Ball is just right to get you going easily enough, whilst offering a challenge that will keep you coming back for more, for years, the Goldilocks ball.

Our Balls are the oft unsung hero of CoolBoard, the key to making a board on a ball work for everyday people, or work full stop, and we are the only people on the planet to get this vital element right.  Too hard and the movement is too fast for most mortals.  Too soft and it simply stops acting as a ball, making a pointless compromised wobble board.

This is why we developed our unique range of Balls, they are key to CoolBoard’s function, and it’s why we stopped supplying the severely compromised, inconsistent and annoying inflatable balls.

Expensive to make, alas there is no ‘off the shelf’ alternative, but they are ready to give you smiles and benefits everyday.  No pump, no pop, no misshape, just hop on and smile.

Suitable for ‘up for it’ 10 – 80 year olds.  Also available as Board & Disc for a gentle start, or Board, Ball & Disc for both.

Other sizes and speeds of Ball are available as accessories, so you can add to your balance arsenal in the future.

Is it fun?

Oh yes!  On Disc it takes the chore out wobble boards and adds joy.  On Ball it’s simply in another league compared with roller or other balance boards.  Impossible to explain in words, it’s just unique and highly addictive, and you can ride it gently or very dynamically depending on mood.  It even makes exercises far more engaging.

Is it beneficial?

Yes, very!  This is the beauty of true 3d movement, whether static on the Disc, or dynamic on the Ball.  So many more muscles will be firing away to control that movement, so it really strengthens up stabilising muscles around joints, targets the core, and if you really want, hits those obliques with a sliding plank!

Is it Difficult?

Disc – no.  If you can stand you can balance, just start with low inflation on the 40cm Disc and go from there.  A support to hold onto is rarely if ever needed.

Ball – it depends on how you approach it.  With instruction and a good support we have had 80 year old grandmothers up and happily balancing away within 10 minutes.  However if you jump on it like an idiot, it may well bite you!  Read the instructions, go easy, and you’ll be fine, better than fine!  It’s the challenge that improves us.

Construction

Not just for Christmas, and definitely not for the cupboard!  We believe in producing products that will not only last a lifetime, but will keep getting used and keep looking enticing.  This makes any product a joy to own, more economical over the years, and saves the planet.

Your Board is engineered, by hand in our workshop in Bristol, UK, from high quality birch ply – one of the strongest plys there is – to a very high standard, including the indented ring to keep you safe on the Ball, and smooth rounded edges for comfortable exercising.  It is then finished with 4 coats of durable lacquer.  Finally the DuraSoft top is added.  You will notice the graphics and logo run right through the DuraSoft, so there’s no printing to rub off and look scabby.  This design has been steadily honed for over 15 years.

Yes, it all costs a bit more, but we would rather you still love your CoolBoard in 5 or 15 years’ time.
