Hurrycane Folding Walking Stick

Disappointingly the first thing this all terrain walking stick tells you in the instructions is that it's not suitable for ice and snow. I have been walking around with it for a few days now, and it is light, very light compared to my NHS issued stick, which is good. So far I've only used it on hard surfaces outside the house, but it feels sturdy and that it would be stable on gravel and soft grass etc. It's a good benefit that you can just let go of it and it stands by itself instead of trying and failing to find something to balance it against when you momentarily need two hands, but on carpeted surfaces you have to be careful about placing it or it will topple, although it does have a useful wrist strap. The instructions mention if you step on the foot of it whilst walking, the sections could be pulled apart and therefore you could fall. This is a useful warning, because it takes a while to get used to the foot having a larger footprint, and it's easy to catch it underfoot, particularly when cornering. Height adjustment is similar to the NHS stick and adjusts in the same increments, so not infinitely adjustable like some nordic walking sticks, but more than adequate. I chose the blue option, an it is a very attractive colour.

Order this because my single point stick slips on wet laminate

This is the second time I've purchased this stick. It is sturdy, well built and great to look at. I'm unlikely to ever buy another brand.

Great for support, feel safe walking with this item

The Hurrycane was easy to assemble and equally easy to use and is an excellent walking aid!It is light and easy to use/store on trains & buses.
