Push along at 12-15 mph on flat smooth asphalt
Great for climbing for downhill runs, and balance
Compared to pushing with your foot (18 inch stroke), allows a push of 5-7 feet. Double your speed.
Key is a carbide-steel tip, which sticks into pavement and wears for weeks between sharpenings.
Won't stick into concrete--but available rubber tips allow some grab.
Extra length harder to manage, but gives much better push
