Best all-around poles, period!

By Daryl Greaser Ranked #205 - Backcountry Ski Poles May 11, 2010

Versatile, strong, 3-section poles. I use my poles primarily for backcountry skiing and backpacking. The Flick-locks are the best in the industry, and are easily adjustable. Don't even consider twist-lock poles, you'll regret it! The only negative is that my 9-year-old pair of BD Probe Poles eventually wore to the point that one of the baskets would no longer stay put in heavy snow - and after a couple of new baskets I decided to buy these! Lesson? Don't change/remove your baskets if you don't have to, and you'll never have any complaints! Also, if you have any issues, simply email the reps at BD - they are extremely responsive and eager to help! Black Diamond stands by its products! Black Diamond products are fantastic!!
