The board further including a lower assembly containing a protective layer and reinforcement. An intermediate core is located between the two assemblies. A plate is located in the underfoot zone that is displaceable in the direction of the lower assembly by foot pressure exerted by the user. A rigid arm is mounted in the board transverse to the core so that one end of the other end bears upon the underside of the plate. Forces exerted by the user on the upper surface of the board are transmitted to the lower surface of the board by the ends of the arm.
