How many suckers have bought into this BS. Amazing how intelligent people keep getting pulled into absolute crap and believe it. I cant believe the number of tools that approach me up here inn QLD who have been seduced by the garbage these powerband boyds are putting out there.
Whats it like in other states. Any one out there in Seabreezeland been conned.

For those (like me) who had never heard of this and wish they hadn't ...

What is Power Balance?
Power Balance is performance technology that uses holograms embedded with frequencies that react positively with your body's natural energy field.
Balance ? Strength ? Flexibility


?How does it work?
Most everything has a frequency inherent to it. Some frequencies react positively with your body and others negatively. When the hologram comes in contact with your body's energy field, it allows your body to interact with the natural, beneficial frequency stored within the hologram. This results in improved energy flow throughout your body.

someone came up to me on the beach in Brighton in January while I was having a drink of water between sails. He lent me his power band and told me it would help.

Sailed up and down. It made f all difference and I gave it back.

Irony of the placebo effect is that if you're dumb enough to believe it will make a difference, then it actually might work

So have either one of you actually tried it? Personally I haven't but all the exposure it's receiving is sure making me want to try one.

Good spiel, but doesn't work anywhere near as good as my product.

Product:
RoShamBoYa.

How it works:
It has been said that a kick straight to the groin has the power to cripple but also seemingly engage a persons mind mentally as well as physically. For to long people have searched for the one person that displays such a gift, thankfully I have been found.

For the low price of $50 (plus my air fairs) I will personally boot you straight in the nuts and bless you with a shot of electrolytes, this will give you mental and physical empowerment beyond the everyday norm.

FAQ;
But why should I get you to boot me? Can't I just get anyone to do it?;
The fact of the matter is no, you can't. Only I have been granted special powers by the ruler of Behtoss to bestow loose energy matter in the form of electrolytes on the receiver of the boot.

How long will the energy last?;
No one is sure how long it lasts, some say weeks others say days or only hours. The fact of the matter is it doesn't matter! You are free to hire me again at any point in time so you will never be without electrolytes.

Can Women get it?;
Yes. I have a special type of boot for women only, it is called KickYaCun+In. It is compatible with all types.

Can I get a trial kick in the groin, sir ROWDY. I've always been a bit sceptical about these sorts of products. I've been kicked in the groin before but I don't think it was a registered kick that came with endorsements by unknown sporting professionals. I like to try before I buy, if you know what I mean. Do you have a web site so I can give you my bank account details and pin number?

It works, really it does. I was just learning to unhook and I started using the powerband. Within a day I could pull back mobes, slim chances, and I even landed a slim chance while doing a back mobe with a double kite loop to blind...all of this was in my first hour of using the powerband.

Disclaimer - If you're dumb enough not to realise the above is sarcasm, then you're probably a perfect candidate for the powerband so go buy one

I heard it does great for your sexual performance, especially balance. I tend to fall over when I am having sex, so I tried putting one of those bands around my slong.
Unfortunately the band was too small.

I hate SUPs as much as I hate gimmicks suck as the power balance. It would make sense that the two go hand in hand.

Sounds like one of L Ron Hubbard's inventions...

I think it is actually a device for them to track all kiters, then when least expected it submits a signal allowing them to take control of your kite and take you to a scary island...ok sorry enough crap...
