SURFSET

SURF'S up in Singapore - and you don't even have to get wet. Today marks the local launch of Surfset, a new exercise programme from - where else? - California that involves balancing on a two-metre- long surfboard-like contraption called the RipSurfer X.

Essentially, it's an unstable platform perched above the floor on three rubber balls. The idea is to simulate the exercise you get from surfing without actually having to go anywhere near the sea.
