styley but breakable

Black Diamond Carbon Fiber Ski Poles

Rating for this product: 3 February 1, 2008

The flicklock is the best mechanism around for adjusting poles. However, after about 20 days this year the lower carbon section broke in half. I've had Leki adjustable carbon poles for 4 years with no breakage issues; however they would often loosen up (twist type locking) - I got sick of that and decided to try something different. Black Diamondhas replacement carbon sections for $15 plus $5 shipping. Not ridiculously expensive but pricey enough to make me consider getting Black Diamond Traverse Poles next time!

Black Diamond Ascension Custom STS Climbing Skins

Rating for this product: 5 January 24, 2008

great skins, easy to cut and mount. i used a utility knife rather than the one that came with the skins. i never cut skins before - less that 30 min later the job was done... you can't go wrong with these!
