    Instant Internal Master?

    Anyone else familiar with this product? I've been wearing it a week and feel like I'm surfing better. So much so I busted my favorite board. Haven't trained with it yet but will roll with it on Monday.

    Thoughts?

    Dunno Ray. Looks like snake oil to me. If you feel you are getting something out of it then great.

    There was a commercial on the other night about something, don't recall what but that doesn't matter, what mattered is that, according to the research:
    45% of the people felt better using this product as opposed to the 40.5 % that felt better using a PLACEBO !
    Yep, a placebo was good enough for 40.5% of the people and only 4.5% using the actual product felt better !

    The mind is truly powerful Bro, if you think it helps/works, guess what, it does.

    He trains my hands for war, my fingers for battle !

    I haven't made a conclusion yet. My surfing has been steadily improving anyway. There's unreal waves here all the time.

    the "tests" seem to be similar to some of those "applied kinesiology" tests some chiropractors use. They tell you to hold your arm out and resist you pushing it down. Then they tell you to think of sugar, and suddenly you are weaker and cannot resist.
    I have seen (and done) the same thing done with an "aura wipe." They run their hand down your conception vessel-without touching you and the same thing happens.
    I think it's mpore plecebo effect than anything else, but still, I'd be interested in how it works with Ray's rolling.
