~~~~~~~~~~UPDATE~~~~~~~~~~~

I have ordered one from a website & waiting for it to come this thursday i can't wait to try it! lol
Anyways any good tips as a beginnger???

I have had one for awhile before I started to learn how to surf. So I can't say whether it helped me or not. The indo board will help with your balance, an balance is required to surf so yes it will help I am just not sure how much though. Plus the indo board is fun to mess around with too.

If you ever longboard they are a great help in learning to cross step. If you can do it smoothly on an Indo board it'll be a piece of cake when you're out in the water.

Was working on a building site at the end of the construction boom and spent a lot of time hiding so as not to be found out how little we had to do and let go. So, bored, I made one out of a piece of thick ply-wood and a length of gas mains ducting. Don't forget to nail some stoppers on the under side of your board or it'll just slide off the end and you'll be in for a hard landing. (As I soon found out).

Was very surprised at how much more solid on my feet I was on my next surf after a week of an hour or two a day on it.

it'd definitely help with your balance, won't help your surfing style though, it's pretty fun stuff, i don't think you have to spend much on one, you can do one yourself, mine is a sanded perfectly round log of eucaliptus, and a wood board, i can do lots of things non of my friends can do, like standing on the tip with one leg and streching the other one straight out and then going down on the one leg and then back up, or with one hand and a leg then taking the other leg out of the side and then bringing it back and sometimes i land the 180's and 360's, gotta have a little imagination to start doing tricks on the thing.
