Benefits of the Adjustable Aluminium Walking stick
1. Quality Materials: Sportstek's Adjustable Walking stick is made from a lightweight aluminium compound to make it both extra strong and easy to carry around for the elderly. The handle is made from a rubber material that is soft on the hands but will not degrade over long term use.
2. Good design: The walking stick is ideal if you require that extra bit of help to remain mobile and on your feet. The handles and stick are designed to provide optimal support with the least amount of effort during your walking gait.
3. Ferrules - the rubber stops on the end of your stick that come into contact with the ground. Replacement ferrules are available for purchase seperately from this website
Sovereign handle
The center of the handle is barrel to fit the palm, the front tapers to accommodate the fingers and to encourage the user to point the index finger along the stem. It then flares out to prevent the hand from slipping. An 8° angle allows gripping and extending of the stick without flexing of the wrist. The stick will also 'hook' over the arm, a chair back, walking frame, doorknob or bedhead etc.
There are two sizes - Medium and Large. To choose your correct size, hang your hand down beside your leg and make sure your elbow is only slightly angled, then measure the distance from your palm to the ground. The stick is adjustable, so the measurement does not need to be absolutely perfect.
