Their pitch expressly claims the device isn’t AT… But it is to help more people access the outdoors, which I think counts to an extent.

Cool but also their products are already incredibly expensive so I can’t imagine what these would cost and also I feel like this kind of detracts from the purpose of hiking.
1.1 their gear is top notch. Expensive, but it lasts in my opinion (and achieves the goal, their winter gear is incredibly performant)
2 subjective, the purpose of hiking is different for many. Simply existing in the outdoors may be enough for someone.
I have a buddy that was in a car wreck and his knee is fucked up. Reconstructive surgery and what not. He’s not fully disabled in so much as he can walk and stand, but anything beyond short stairways and he’s toast. He can never come hiking because of his knee and a tool like this might help, a small amount. (Which means a net positive of easy trails he can handle)
