    Balance is improved by having a wide base of support, keeping the center of gravity low, maintaining the line of gravity close to the center of the base of support, and increasing friction. Stability increases with a larger and lower base of support, lower center of gravity positioned over the base, line of gravity closer to the center of the base, and rougher surfaces that provide more friction.

    Principles of balance

    1- Size and shape of base of support


    The larger the base of support the greater the stability.
    2- Height of COG in relation to base of support
    The lower the COG, the greater the stability.
    3- The relation of line of gravity and base of support
    The closer the line of gravity to the center of base of support, the greater
    the stability.
    4-Friction
    The more the friction force (rough surface), the more the stability.
