Marshmellow is nice for city but. Agree that tennis is better if your city streets aren’t the best kept

I personally use a marshmallow tip, I found that a tennis ball one is good for sidewalks and grates because it gets stuck less easily

I use a pencil cane tip. I find the marshmallow cane tip to be a little heavy.

Currently got a marshmallow but want to get me a tennis ball. The pencil is just too tough on my wrists with the constant tapping.

Marshmallow

I don't use a cane anymore, but I like a roller tip because I could exert force on the ground and feel all the little spots.

The two common ones for walking in urban areas is a marshmallow tip, or a roller tip. The roller tip is a little larger than a marshmallow but it rolls, so it gives you more tactile feedback. However, it is also heavier. So it does depend on what technique you use.

Metal glide ti. I like the sensitivity.

Roller ball tip. It’s essentially a marshmallow tip with a ball bearing in it, so it rolls as you slide your cane back and forth. I find a pencil tip gets stuck in all kinds of cracks and divers, and I just end up jabbing myself in the stomach a lot.

Pencil. Big round tips are better in some of the ways people say here but I find that if you don't do constant contact you can minimise the getting stuck and the better feedback is, well better!
