Black Diamond Alpine CF Trekking Poles - 1 Pair
Great for Snow Sports

The tech specs say backpacking and hiking but I've used these to snowshoe and skin up the mountain on my splitboard and they work great. Really light in the pack too. My only complaint would be that when fully stowed the cam locks don't fully lock down on the narrow end and adjusting the screw would cause the cams to be too tight when locking the poles out into hiking mode. Overall very nice and light.
