I think it is probably the same thing/concept as the rocker board you are using Hernan.  I find it to be a great strenghtening tool though.

Try using the Bosu ball.  It is a half ball that strengthens your core through balance.  I started out doing small squats and moved to one leg balance.  It really improved the muscles without stress on the hip joint.
