ABSTRACT:
The invention herein relates to kind of improve equilibrium game device, specifically referring to a kind that has a game board with a linear motion slot that is a randomly non-collinear and of a varying width through which the player moves an equilibrium rod. The unique innovation of the invention herein is the attachment of a looped surfacing or a hooked surfacing on the contoured inner surfaces of the linear motion slot and the attachment of a looped surfacing or hooked surfacing to the outer aspect of the equilibrium rod, with the particular surfacing applied to the linear motion slot and on the equilibrium rod being of an opposite nature to produce snagging or frictional resistance upon mutual contact, such that the player is afforded a safe, simple and convenient means of practicing equilibrium by avoiding contact that would, due to engagement of the respective hooked and looped surfaces, prevent continued movement of the equilibrium rod through the linear motion slot.
