A device comprising a first member 12 for supporting a user 200; and a second member 14, attached to the first member 12, comprising a counterbalance portion 16. The first member 12 and the second member 14 are each moveable, and operable to slide with respect to each other in opposite directions, between a first position and a second position. The device 10 is preferably operable such that between the first and second positions, the combined centre of mass of the device 10 and its user 200 remains substantially fixed. This serves to reduce the extent of forces and vibrations generated by use of the device on the object to which the device 10 is located.
