The mini light projectors have been fitted on the below surface of the board and the rider should touch the projected numbers while maintaining the balance, making exercising a playful event. Even more, it features a multiplayer mode through which the person can go for a deadly tournament with his opponent, considering that the less scorer will have to jump from the board on deep sea which surely will give the exerciser some effective motivation.
