HISTORY:
Surfer, HunterJoslin, with 40 years of surfing experience, developed Indo Boards over a 30 year span, beginning with the first proto-type in 1975. Originally designed to train surfers out of the water, Joslin discovered, from his growing cadre of loyal Indo Board fans, that the apparatus was much more than a surfing simulator. Users reported increased leg strength and core fitness, as well as flexibility while experiencing a high degree of entertainment when using the Indo Board. In 1998, Joslin decided to market the board commercially, developing a website, a distribution channel and taking the Indo Board to trade shows for surfing, outdoors, snowboarding, fitness, and physical education
