Check out ANATOMY OF YOUR LEKI POLE ON YOUTUBE.COM, its the same basic way of removing the tips from the Black Diamond Trail Shock/Trail Trekker poles. Hope this will help... Happy Trekking

There are rubber boot covers for the carbide tips, they help from scratching rocks,slippage on hard rocky surfaces and deep penetration into soft ground,saving the baskets from being damaged.I also leave the boot covers on when I'm ready to transport the poles in my Osprey 65 Porter Gear Bag, so that no holes will be punched through my pack. I use them all the time,they work great....

You might even consider BD Trekking Pole Tip Protectors. Helps save the rocks from scratching, gets just as good grip, and takes some of the burden off your pole tips. Well worth the $5.
