The black diamond distance plus flz trekking poles are an aluminum trekking pole utilizing black diamonds z pole technology and are designed so that they can be reconfigured by changing baskets and tips so that they can be used all year long in a variety of terrain.
At the 2019 giants head marathon i got the chance to use some running poles for the first time.
If you re looking for a light pole and don t think you need any range of adjustment check out the fixed length but equal in collapsed size black diamond distance 12 ounces and distance.
They re super light a pair weighs between 345 and 365 grams depending on size thanks to carbon construction and they fold down into thirds using the z pole rapid deployment system.
Combining the amazing compactibility of a z pole with flicklock the distance flz is an excellent choice for long hikes and steep approaches.
