Why it's best:
The Bongo Board is at the top of the heap for a number of reasons – first and foremost it is a solid piece of equipment capable of holding even large bodied individuals without any problem, this board will hold up to frequent use.
Fitter First also has the user and their environment’s safety in mind; though the roller moves smoothly and freely during use, it is attached by an elastic cord to prevent the board from going anywhere in the event of a fall. The Bongo Board has excellent grip on the surface to prevent feet (or hands) from slipping during use and the edges are raised to keep your feet from accidentally coming off of the edge.
The Bongo Board may be a little pricier than some of the other boards in the top five, but in terms of quality and performance – it’s worth every penny.
