Have any U.S. Presidents used walking poles? It does not appear that there is any widely documented evidence or historical records indicating that a U.S. President has used walking poles during their time in office. However, it's important to note that information on personal habits, such as the use of walking poles, might not be extensively documented so we just don't know.
Given the rising popularity of using walking poles for balance and stability, would it surprise if they had? Who can say for sure but on this Presidents' Day our message to our past, current and future leaders is "Let's Get Out There"!
I’ve been using these poles for a few weeks now while rehabbing from surgery and I am blown away by the quality. The shaped handles are fantastic (though quite large on this model — intended for larger hands). The design, materials and finish are all top-notch. You’ll know the moment you pick one up in your hand that this is a heavier, higher-quality, more durable walking stick than you’ve ever used.
These lasted me 4 years of heavy everyday wear in all sorts of weather before something in the mechanism anchoring the spring gave out. I'm incredibly impressed! I'm very hard on my crutches and these flextips have more than stood up to the test. They are by far my favourite smartcrutch accessory!
It's about time someone made a pole for some of us bigger guys. I am big and tall and haven't been able to find walking poles that will handle my height and weight. These are perfect for me!
