8board Basics Our original double-swivel system lets you figure-8 your way to peak performance


The 8board is the patented, revolutionary training tool that improves balance, coordination, flexibility and power for athletes in virtually every sport.

The Grail Sports™ methodology is based upon the figure-8, which is a never-ending continuous movement. Think of the horizontal "8" of the 8board as an infinity sign, lying parallel to your hips.  If you allow your hips to move slowly in the shape of the infinity sign (figure-8) the rest of your body will automatically follow, creating the most natural rotation possible for the human body.

How does 8board Work?
The 8board Movement System trains you to harness the power of centrifugal force to improve circulation and limber your body. Step on the 8board and you’ll quickly learn to establish your center through proper posture and develop the body mechanics to cause “contrary motion” and the fluid, natural figure-8 movement.

Non-impact exercise on the 8board creates dynamic balance throughout your entire body, while it continuously stretches and strengthens from the inside out -- or as we say at Grail Sports Inc., “from your center to your periphery.”

It is also the first “total body movement operating system” that works on all body joints -- hips, knees, ankles, shoulders, elbows and wrists. At the same time, conditioning your mind to the figure-8 movement enables you to think outside the brain and train within the body-mind.

Through repetitive figure-8 motion, anyone can feel the effortless power of the pros.
By doing what feels natural, learning any sport or athletic movement becomes intuitive.

Who can use the 8board?
The 8board has proven effective with athletes of all sports, including golf, tennis, baseball, skiing and more. The 8board has been used by the San Diego Padres, golf star Relief Goosen and the USC Men’s Tennis team, just to name a few. It’s also been a significant part of the training routine for the USSA (United States Ski and Snowboard Teams.)

The 8board is simple to use. It is great in the development of children’s motor skills and has even been purported to help with concentration and in some cases, dyslexia and ADD. The 8board was recently featured in Deepak Chopra’s Children’s Programs, Cosmikids.

Elderly people find the 8board extremely helpful with balance and flexibility, which is often a problem for people over the age of 60. We actually have heard stories of women in their nineties that have told us that by doing the figure-8 they have noticed a new “spring in their step.”

Where can I use my 8board?
The 8board can be used indoors or out; at home while watching TV, talking on the phone, or listening to music. It’s lightweight and portable. It even comes with a zippered carrying case.
