Looks like there is finally something to raise the Wii Fit balance board up to a decent height. The Wii Riiser from ZooZen will be available from Amazon.com from 25th April. The device is a foldable stand that raises the Wii Fit balance board up to a height of four inches, which is apparently the standard height of a step aerobics platform.

This is something that is sorely needed if you want to burn serious calories doing Wii Fit Step Aerobics or Rhytm Boxing. The current height of the board simply doesn't present much of a workout.

No sign of a release date for those of us on the other side of the pond, but I'll keep looking. If anyone manages to get one, let us know how much of a difference it makes to your workout.
