A new category of balance training

Balansa™ Foam Board – Progression

More motion. More challenge. More balance.

The responsive foam base allows movement in every direction.

As the foam compresses, it stores and releases energy, creating dynamic movement your body must constantly stabilize against.

Three height settings let you adjust the challenge—from a stable foundation to highly dynamic balance training.

Price range: €65,00 through €178,00

Current batch: violet foam
Your board ships with violet foam.
Black-foam prototype boards Available at 30–50% off, depending on cosmetic condition.

These prototypes use the latest foam and board design and perform the same way as the final product. The differences are cosmetic only. They come from an earlier method of attaching the hook-and-loop fasteners to the foam; some areas needed glue repairs, while others have grooves on the underside, as shown in the photos. The discount depends on the visibility and extent of these cosmetic inconsistencies, ranging from 30% to 50% off.

HOW IT WORKS

How Foam Improves Balance Training

Balansa Foam Board illustrating movement in all six directions

All 6 directions

Unlike traditional balance boards with rigid bases, our durable high-density PU foam base allows resistive movement in all 6 degrees of freedom — three rotational and three translational.

This full-range instability engages core stabilizers, sharpens control, and better reflects how the body maintains balance in real-world situations.

Strong energy return

When loaded, the foam compresses and stores energy, which is released as dynamic movement whenever the body makes small, uncontrolled shifts. This produces strong reactive movement — similar to slacklining, but more accessible — that demands continuous stabilization in all directions.

The movement is comparable to balancing on an air cushion or an inverted BOSU®, but with more responsive energy return and a more engaging ride.

MODULAR DESIGN

One Board, Three Intensities

Adjust the challenge to your level or training goal by changing foam height and quantity. First, choose the right amount of foam for your body weight, then select your intensity by choosing foam height.

You’re never locked into one level. Progress over time, fine-tune the difficulty, or quickly adjust for different exercises.

Choose the right amount of foam

Two foam sizes: Base foam (L) and add-on foam (S) cover a body-weight range of approximately 50–170 kg. Simply add or remove S foam pieces, and use the insert in the L block for fine-tuning.

Base foam – L

Choose Your Surface

Choose between two board surfaces to match the feel under your feet:

Balansa Foam Board with laser-engraved wood surface

Natural feel with moderate grip, allowing easier foot turning. Suitable for most shoes and barefoot use — ideal for personal use.

A NOTE FROM THE FOUNDER

Portrait of Miha Škof, founder of Balansa Slackline

Miha Škof

Creator of the Balansa Foam Board
Active office use · 3 years

“A standing desk wasn’t enough — my body wanted to keep moving, not just stand. While developing the Balansa Foam Board, I discovered that using it at my standing desk completely changed how I feel during long hours at the computer. It feels liberating for both body and mind. With the highest foam setting, I can naturally lean on my desk while using the mouse or typing, staying active without excessive movement. I’m grateful to have the Foam Board as part of my daily routine!”

Have had the Balansa Foam board for slightly more than a year. I use it for easy morning exercise. However, my nieces are the ones using it everytime they stop by.

Balansa Foam Board uporabljam okoli pol leta, 3-4x tedensko. Ob jogi in nekaj vajah za moč s tem pripomočkom poskrbim za dodatno vadbo stabilizacije, ravnotežja in koncentracije. V tem času sem ugotovil, da Balansa Foam Board omogoča zelo prijetno in varno vadbo, spodbuja k napredku pri vadbi, z dodatnimi penami omogoča prilagajanje osvojeni težavnosti, obenem pa je enostaven za uporabo in shranjevanje. Toplo priporočam.

Preko 10 let se ukvarjam s slackline. Pri Balanasa sem opravil začetniški tečaj in nato več let užival v mnogih slack druženjih v SLO [Ljubljana, Bloško jezero, ... ] in HR [Pula/Vinkuran]... Od 2024 pa imam še Balansa Foam board. Uporabljam ga v dveh okoljih: doma ter kot pedagog. Odlično, smart orodje za negovanje ravnotežnih spretnosti in koordinacije, fokusa, dihanja, flowa... ne zavzame skoraj nič prostora doma ali v avtu, v zabavo je mojim učencem,... LAHKO PRIPOROČAM!!! 👍

Well, the Balansa foam board is now a permanent part of my computer workstation, alongside my ergonomic chair and walking desk. After just a few days of use, I noticed better muscle tone in my glutes and back, stronger ankle muscles, and improved coordination while trail running. As with the walking desk, it took less than a week before I was able to use the board while working on computer-based tasks without losing focus. I especially recommend using it while listening to music, as it encourages more dynamic movement and gives you a sense of free-form dancing, even during longer work sessions. It’s a very useful and fun addition to my work setup. I totally recommend it.

cherchais quelque chose pour travailler mon équilibre. Finalement je suis tombé sur les "slacklines". A force de m'y essayer, j'y ai pris goût, j'aime tenter de jouer au funambule, même si pour l'instant, je tombe après quelques secondes. Je me suis mis à chercher quelque chose pour pouvoir m'entraîner dans mon appartement. Il existe quelques modèles en acier mais le Woodie de Balansa , malgré son prix un peu plus élevé, m'a directement séduit. Proposé par une association de passionnés, pas juste une compagnie. En bois solide mais malgré tout élastique et cela fait toute la différence car cette combinaison permet sur le Woodie de faire même des sauts si vous en êtes capable, il ne se cassera pas. Il permet à des gens d'un poids plus élevé comme moi (+- 90 kg) aussi de pratiquer dessus. Je l'adore, il est joli en plus fabriqué tout en bois. Il peut se replier rapidement et ne prendre que relativement peu de place. Déplié, prêt à l'emploi, aussi en quelques minutes, 3 mètres pour s'exercer en tout sécurité, même si au début, être à 45cm du sol, cela fait un peu peur mais on s'y habitue rapidement.
