I don't see how balance is a big factor - with brachiation you don't fall off of a branch because you wobbled and dumped yourself, like a scansorial climber such as a squirrel risks. Hanging is wonderfully self-stabilizing - there's some great science class demonstrations involving hanging various funny-looking weights off a table to demonstrate how this does great things for your centre of gravity. As long as your hook (hand, sloth-claws, whatever) is large enough to wrap around the tree limb and strong enough to keep the hook shape while bearing your weight (quite easy for the little brachiating apes, like gibbons) you're not going anywhere unless interfered with or your hand gets tired.
