The matching seat stick

How do I find out which is the right cane for me?

Basically, when choosing for a walking stick, we first differentiate according to body size.
The following table will help you choose the right walking stick

If your body length (with suitable footwear) is less than 180 cm, you have the choice between the

• Standard model (art. no. 7701) and
• the foldable model (art.-no. 7703).

However, if you are taller than 180 cm, your choice is limited to the

• Extra long model (art.-no. 7702) and the
• foldable+adjustable (art.-no. 7706) model.

If your height (with suitable footwear) is under 170 cm, we recommend the

• Model extra short (Art.-No. 7801) available in black or green
• .
• Model extra short foldable (art.-no. 7803) available in black or green

Think about what you need a walking stick for. This usually results in the second selection criterion.
If you want to use the walking stick for shopping, then we advise the walking sticks as standard model (7701,7801 or 7702) or the foldable walking sticks (7703 and 7706).
When travelling, we recommend the foldable (7703) or the foldable and adjustable (7706) walking sticks for convenience and better transportability in the suitcase.

How do I determine my correct cane height?

In order to achieve adequate support and comfortable sitting position, it is necessary that the walking aid is adjusted to the correct height. The user of the Flipstick should be able to maintain an upright posture with the elbow slightly bent. Here, the body weight is transferred to the stick when it is supported.
Place the stick on the ground, the sitting stick should not be extended. Let the arms hang loosely down. The tip of the triangular seat should end at the fingertips. If the pole is too long, you can shorten or adjust it. On the adjustable models, this is done using the built-in height adjustment knob, whereas the standard models must be shortened by hand using a standard hacksaw. Above all, your flipstick model should be comfortable when walking and and provide good seating comfort.
