    never heard of it mate sorry i thought the only way to improve was good old fashioned practice

    Its got thinner doubles and trebles.The idea is you practice on the trainer board during the week so when it comes to match night the trebles and doubles are so big looking you can't miss.Thats the theory anyway reality could be different though.

    They're only out recently aren't they ?

    Even the recommended Unicorn online shop doesn't have them.

    Ebay is the only place I've seen one.

    That would be great,thanks.
    I've checked the Unicorn site and they are there in the new 2007 range but are going for £33 thats without p&p.It would work out too dear for my liking.Elverys in Bray said they had them in there shop in Suffolk st but when i rang they never heard of them.

    Unicorn have a reputation for excellent customer service. If you e-mail them I'd say they'd quickly be able to tell you where to get the board.

    Sorry lads he said he bought it in a Sports shop in England. Not much help im afraid. It looks as if you will need to buy it online because I havent seen a training board in any shops in Ireland.

    Sorry, what I meant was, how are you finding it for practicing on?

    Sorry :o

    I think its excellent. The trebles and doubles really are very small on the board and it takes alot of accuracy to hit them. I find it very helpful for my doubles because ifyou can check out on the pracice board then you should have no problem on the eclipse pro board.

    If you play for a few hours on the training board, when you step up to play a match on the Eclipse Pro board the trebles and doubles seem huge and you can hit them very regularily.

    I would reommend that you pick one up if you can because it has worked wonders for my game. As you know darts is all about practice and if you can do it on the training board then you can do it on any board.

    I'm going to drop in there tomorrow and have a look, just in case the shop assistant wasn't the brightest !

    May as well check Brenfer too during the week.

    Finally got my hands on one today.Mikes Bikes ordered one in for me €52 a bit pricey but hopefully it'll be worth it.
