Is the tip mounted flexibly? I mean, could it be used on a 20 degree slope, where the cane is straight up but the base is on the slope at 20 degrees?

No the base is not flexible, I personally like the security of that, but other users may not.

No, the tip is not mounted flexibly. However, I have used the cane on slopes with no difficulty.

No the quad tip on the cane is firmly set........no flexibility like the "Hurrycane" cane. The cane is stable and give you firm grip and balance, if that is what you need. I need a cane for balance issues due to neurological condition. I would not want a can with a slope of 20 degrees. Good luck!!

No the tip is not flexible. In a slope, I would make much smaller steps and keep the cane closer to the body than usual. If the tip was flexible, I don't think it would be as stabilizing.

I function on a senior level. I have not noted problems with the chair wanting to tip. I think it would require a significant effort to do that. The legs are fairly wide and seem stable. I guess if you were extra heavy it could happen.As with any chair one could slide off, but I don't see that is very likely here either.

I think the angle might be too ab,rupt for use as a ramp, if I understand your question correctly. It curves up quickly

I wouldn't set it on anything marked enough to be considered a slope. It needs to be pretty much even.

depends the slant, the base is pretty heavy and stable so it may not slide.

Have not tried that but tip of trekking pole is pointed like ski pole so mostly likely not.

You can clamp it pretty much anywhere you have a flat surface...not sure how it would do on anything sloped or tubular since the clamp surface is flat. I love mine...have my ipad connected to the table next to my recliner...lovvve it!

Depends on what you mean by level. If you mean smooth, no, mine isn't. If you mean can you set it up on a slope? I would strongly advise against that.

I purchased the Hugo tip and love it. My cane is now a stand alone and fairly stable. Have had it fall a couple of times but it was my fault for both the tips.

I wouldn't consider it "tippy". It is heavy and solid, however with 30 lbs on the edge, it would probably tip.

It has a sturdy tip/loop. It works as well or better than most. As long as not at full extension. KJ

I gave it as a gift, so I don't know firsthand, but he does have it on carpet and has never complained of it tipping, so I would assume that it is not easily tippable at all.

Yes, I have one but I only use it around the house. I use a regular can outside of the house as it is easier to maneuver in aisles and around people, etc. The four-point tip is great for indoors as you can stand it up anywhere and not be afraid of it falling over. I am always dropping the regular cane when trying to prop it up while I am doing something that needs both hands and this damages the handle or my floors. I hope this helps answer your question.

I have my rain-guard nonslip cane tip now for almost a year and it still works. It has not yet cracked and hope it doesnt. I hope this was helpful.

The base does not pivot, but if the cane tips over, just use your foot to right it.

You would have to use different stake system to make it sturdy. Would recommend flat because of tipping hazard on slope. My twin 4 year old grandsons love to climb on this. Very happy with it.

I found that the tip is wobbly but only if you don't have the cuff key screwed in all the way. Once I tightened the cuff key into the cap the tip was rock solid.
