Black Diamond Traverse Ski Poles

Item #BLD0472 | 359 in Stock
3 Star Rating

Maybe find some 3 piece poles

By Ranked #120 - Backcountry Ski Poles January 16, 2010

I used these on my Level 1 Avy course. they worked fine. they supported my weight(240). but when stowed on my backpack for the trip down, they stuck way up. Like past the top of my head.

here is picture of the BD Expedition 3 piece poles(they seem to be a little stronger than the Traverse poles). If you are a boarder do yourself a favor and find some 3 piecers.
