ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for providing exercises to enhance muscle tone and coordination especially adapted for skiing enthusiasts. The apparatus consists of a tilt swivel board upon which the user stands. The tilt swivel board is formed with a planar top surface and a substantially convex bottom surface. Elastic extensible springs are anchored at one end to the tilt swivel board and pass through a harness belt adapted to be attached about the user's waist. Handles are provided at the other end of the springs for grasping by the user while bending the knees. Thereafter, body weight shifts between the legs and arm movements similar to those during skiing cause the swivel board to tilt and rock thereby imparting body motions similar to those encountered during skiing.
