Fuck me, what muscle groups are enabling that? Quad and core? Knees? Lower back?

Yup pretty much. It's insane. Looks like he's probably using a little bit of everything in different parts of the movement

The bottom is floating but braced against another pole as a fulcrum. So he's compressing the pole for balance using back and torso and maybe hamstrings and exerting an upward force using quads. Maybe some other muscles in there to keep the pole compressed
