Abstract: The purpose of this study was to examine the influence of surface and instrument on static postural control performance of collegiate marching artists. Fifty-seven collegiate marching artists completed single- and double-leg stance balance with and without an instrument on firm and foam surfaces (four conditions per stance). Two, 15-s trials of each condition were performed on a tri-axial force plate. Total, antero-posterior, and medio-lateral centre-of-pressure excursion, and 95% ellipse sway area were collected. Means from the two trials were averaged. Linear mixed-effects models were fit with centre-of-pressure variables as predictors with fixed effects of surface and instrument, adjusting for number of seasons in marching band and type of instrument. Alpha level was set a priori at p ≤ 0.05. Standing on foam surface, regardless of stance, elicited longer excursion and larger sway area (p
