forget that! £40 quad sticks from limulus (Tony), best £40 you'll ever spend. ok not telescopic, but so sturdy you might as well just stay standing
PKL is spot on. Even better, 4 sticks for £8 from Homebase. Regards JCS
I have tried all types of cheap sticks and they all work with practice. I must admit I do like the Primos gen2 tripod trigger stick I purchased from Bushwear it is very stable and great on uneven ground,much better than the gen1. You can use it kneeling and sitting and it is quiet when extending.
