longboarding in physical education!
Born from a love of surfing, longboarding was originally created as an off season exercise to help stay fit and keep busy while tides were down and surf was mellow. Longboarding builds core strength while improving your balance and cardio fitness. Though it shouldn't be the crux of your workout routine, it provides an excellent supplement to a healthy diet and active lifestyle. Longboarding is also a cost-effective, fun and fulfilling sport that you can take up to stimulate additional exercise without feeling like you're stuck at the gym all day.
