Abstract: A walking aid comprising a shaft and a handle that, as viewed in a position of use of the walking aid, is disposed at an upper end of the shaft, the handle extending transverse to the shaft. The handle is inclined upwardly at an angle to the axis of the shaft. The handle is curved inwardly out of a plane formed by the handle and the shaft and toward the body of a user of the walking aid. When configured for right hand use, the handle is twisted clockwise, and when configured for left hand use, the handle is twisted in a counterclockwise direction.

Abstract: A racket for a ball to be hit and guided at the ground includes a frame of an oval shape and surrounding a central opening through the frame. The frame has opposite arcuate-shaped top and bottom portions being oppositely curved away from another and opposite arcuate-shaped lateral end portions extending between the top and bottom portions and being oppositely curved away from one another so as to provide the frame with the oval shape. The racket also includes a striking face mounted to the frame and extending across the central opening thereof and an elongated shaft joined with the frame at one of the arcuate-shaped lateral end portions thereof and extending from the frame in a generally tangential relationship to the frame. The striking face has a pair of opposite sides.
