"We are teaching our students how to create their lifetime physical activity plans and “THE WAVE” fits very nicely into our program. THE WAVE activity includes all the components of fitness but strongly identifies working on core stability."
Dr. Mike Tenoschok, 2005 NASPE National Physical Education High School Teacher of the Year, Mount Paran Christian School, GA.
"Since your program came to Mt. Paran, ...we have used ‘The Wave’ in physical education in two ways. First we have them out as an ABC (Activity Before Class) option where the students get to choose an activity before roll is taken and the lesson of the day is presented. Secondly, we use them as part of a station when we have various fitness-related activities going on. Either way they are a big hit! We actually have students who can throw and catch a football and shoot a basketball without losing balance. They constantly ask if we can play Wave Board Soccer or some other traditional sport on boards. The neat thing is that it is both boys and girls that are drawn to this invention."

"The Wave Board is a good leg, thigh and abdomen work out combined with balance and agility. As a Physical Education teacher, I love to see things that get kids excited about physical activities rather than video games and this truly does that."
Louise Wilson, PE Teacher, Ben Franklin Middle School, Levittown, PA
"I appreciated how professional Kate was in her presentation especially when she stressed the importance of wearing a helmet. She was enthusiastic, organized and very helpful to the students with learning new skills. She even made all the teachers want to participate in this activity."
Jill Schenk, PE Teacher, Pacific Middle School, San Diego, CA
"I am just writing to let you know just how much fun our students had when you came here with the presentation of the new Wave board. They cannot stop talking about it. It is such a wonderful activity for those students who do not have good hand eye coordination."
PE Staff, Pines Middle School, Broward County, FL
"I witnessed some kids who are very difficult to motivate with physical activity get right out there and have genuine fun while being active. We also had a few autistic children ride the boards and what a pleasure it was to see the joy on their faces."
Coach Sherry Younger, Baytown Junior School, Baytown, TX
"The Wave board was a big hit. Our students have never shown so much excitement about trying something new. It was a wonderful activity for all students no matter what their skill level. I appreciate the detailed instructions Aaron gave on how to properly ride the board and to make safety the number one goal. With students working together, they were able to learn to ride the boards in a shorter amount of time.
Tiffany Blasdel, Girl’s PE Teacher, Mesquite Junior High, Gilbert, AZ
" The students were instructed on techniques to make use of this unconventional equipment much easier, and the great majority of them were ‘Waving’ around the gym after only 15 minutes! Students showed great interest and enjoyment and I keep hearing "when can we do The Wave again?...The Wave aids students’ improvement in balance and agility, while providing an opportunity to increase their heart rate... They don’t even realize that they are exercising!"
Sean J. Duffy, MS, CPT, Rutherford B. Hayes High School, Deleware, OH
"As a Physical Educator for the past 27 years at a large high school in central Ohio, I have seen many passing trends in the field that have come and gone. However, with The Wave Board, I believe that this is an excellent piece of equipment that can survive a generation of students and become a lifetime skill and activity. - All of the students enjoyed this learning experience; too bad it was but for one day. We as a department give the Wave Board and the experience a strong, "Two thumbs up!"
