Wobble/Balance exercises

[jds 20]

I've been doing a bit of wobble board/ balance board work to try to improve my balance and stabilization in the hopes of having this transfer to skating. Seems to be working but I'm wondering if anyone knows of any specific exercises/moves that are particularly beneficial for skating.

One legged squats are great, as are lunges. Plyometrics in general is great for both power and balance if you are doing them predominantly on one foot.

This will sound overly simplistic but practice standing on one foot (eyes closed) for as long as you can. Then practice stick handling while jumping around only on one foot for as long as you can. I can't recall where I first read this, but it's been very helpful to me.

every time you tie your shoes, do it standing on one foot
