El Toro Furioso Posted April 23, 2019 Report Share Posted April 23, 2019 My wife is preparing for life after a broken hip. When she gives up the walker, she wants to try a couple of the "ski poles" modified for terra firma. What are these called? Where does one buy them? Are they available in the Chapala area? So many questions. We are returning from the beach for a week or two tomorrow, so any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AngusMactavish Posted April 23, 2019 Report Share Posted April 23, 2019 Amazon Mexico has a few different types that they deliver to your door. https://www.amazon.com.mx/s?k=hiking+sticks&__mk_es_MX=%C3%85M%C3%85%C5%BD%C3%95%C3%91&ref=nb_sb_noss_1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiny Posted April 23, 2019 Report Share Posted April 23, 2019 I also found a pair of folding hiking poles. It is Amazon US but it says it ships to Mexico. https://www.amazon.com/EarthTrekGear-Folding-Collapsible-Travel-Trekking/dp/B004Q2B2SC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MtnMama Posted April 24, 2019 Report Share Posted April 24, 2019 They also have some at Costco. As someone who has used them for a long time, starting with hiking and snowshoeing many years ago, you want to look for adjustable, spring tip, light weight but strong metal.

CHILLIN Posted April 24, 2019 Report Share Posted April 24, 2019 I'm sure your wife will do well. Here is a video of dancing to Beyonce's I let go - a summer time dance challenge craze. I thought it was funny that this one begins with two people with the poles. Maybe your wife will find inspiration! Second video down. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/nbcblk/beyonc-s-i-let-go-challenge-here-now-get-your-n997736 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
