[pct-l] Silva Pole Mate

[AsABat]

I really don't see how this would work accurately on the trail. On city
trails where the pole swing is consistent it might work. But on the
trail, my pole swing varies greatly. On flat trail I'm moving fairly
quickly and using my pole every other step. On the steeper uphills I
move my pole every step, and those steps are much smaller. Still, an
interesting product.
