When a single rubber tip no longer gives enough stability, a four point tip spreads the contact across four rubber feet and widens the base at the bottom of the stick.
It helps a client who is unsteady on uneven ground or short on confidence through the stance phase. Many clients also find the stick will stand up on its own when they let go, which saves a lot of bending to retrieve it.
Rubber wears, so it is worth checking the tread at review and replacing the tip before it goes smooth.
