Equilibristics refers to a number of 'circus arts' and juggling skills in which the main prop is rotated around its own center of gravity.

Many different tricks and stunts fit into this category.

Technically, balancing a cane on the tip of a finger is an equilibristic stunt, but generally equilibristics is more flashy:

Couch juggling, where the juggler lays on his or her back, balancing an upended sofa on the soles of the feet... the couch is flipped end-for-end, and caught at the other end, gradually beginning a spin which is maintained by deft movements of the feet.

The traditional Scottish athletic event, the Kaber Toss might be considered another form of equilibristics.

Perhaps the most well-known of the equilibristic arts is the twirling of batons, and the use of the juggling prop known as Devil Sticks.
