I've been shutdown from using a Manfrotto table tripod and that thing is pretty small. I have a QR adaptor on it so I can be in and out in a ~min. But no dice in an Austrian church. Next time I travel, I'll use a fluffly scarf as a bean bag.

I went specifically looking for just such a thing two years ago - and found it. Absolutely USELESS as a walking stick, very flimsy, and probably likewise as a monopod - especially as it only extended high enough to make the user need to kneel down. If you can kneel down and get back up again, you most probably don't actually need a walking stick all that much. I certainly need far more support than that thing offered. No sale. You might look into a primo trigger stick. The long one goes pretty high, they collapse quickly, and are better than nothing. They are sold as gun rests for use in the field.
