is this cane light weight? I don't like heavy canes

I just weighed my Hugo cane, the one with the compact quad foot that I recently purchased, and found that it weighed 21 1/2 ozs. That is twenty one and a half onces. This seems not very heavy to me. I am of normal build for an 80 year old female.My other regular cane, without quad foot, weighs 11 ozs., but I like the convenience of being able to stand my new cane almost anywhere, except, of course on uneven carpet.Another of my canes, with the spread out metal feet, weighs 38 onces. This seem a little heavy to me when compared to my regular cane, and it's a little awkard to use. I tend to trip over the extended feet when I have them facing inwards.

Are you able to walk on grass or gravel with the Hugo Mobility Quadpod Cane?

have had this cane for 10 years just ordered my 2nd (Grip wore out) not only is it good in gravel grass, sand but also does well in Snow!

Does the canes quad base go longer from front to back, or from left to right?

The cane is centered in the base, no side is longer than any other.

Is the tip mounted flexibly? I mean, could it be used on a 20 degree slope, where the cane is straight up but the base is on the slope at 20 degrees?

No the tip is not flexible. In a slope, I would make much smaller steps and keep the cane closer to the body than usual. If the tip was flexible, I don't think it would be as stabilizing.
