<p>A crutch or walking stick according to the invention as good as eliminates the greatest drawback of such aids, namely that they easily fall when the user needs to loosen his/her grip of them for a moment. This drawback is removed by means of a pedestal part (7) according to the invention, having two supporting points via the cylinders (8), arranged at a distance from one another, of the pedestal part, which supporting points touch the ground, wherefore a stick or crutch of considerable sideways stability is provided. This property is exploited when the stick or crutch is left to lean against a support. In addition, the leg (1) and handle parts (2) of the stick or crutch are entirely covered with a non-slip material, such as an elastic rubber material, whereby the stick or crutch can also be left to lean against convex or point-like supports, such as the outside of a car, round tables or pointed corners, independent of the height at which they touch the stick or crutch.</p> |
