Sorry guys, can't find the answer via search, but what is a
parallelogram stick?


This is one, in a Club Libelle.

Sorry if it's not too clear but I wasn't especially taking a photo of
the stick!

The stick grip is on a vertical shaft that comes down only as far as
the horizontal tube, to which it is rigidly welded. There are two
pivoting vertical tubes coming down from the middle and front of the
horizontal tube. The front one is obscured by the foam.
