Personally, I found the trigger sticks a bit on the heavy side and a little noisy when being opened or closed...

I currently have a bipod sticks that are made from a pair of Chub cam-lock bivvy/storm poles used by fishermen..

They are only two section and are a bit tall in the sitting position, but its a compromise I am willing to accept.

For anybody 5'10" or shorter, you would not even need to compromise and the two section would be perfect for both sitting and standing..
