Black Diamond

Distance Carbon Z Trekking Poles

The Distance Carbon Z Trekking Pole is the lightest collapsible pole that Black Diamond makes, which means it's perfect for long-distance treks, speed hiking, and even ultrarunning. As you'd expect, it's made of 100% carbon fiber, which keeps the weight down to a microscopic nine ounces per pair, and the collapsible shaft assembles with a quick pull so you can whip it out of your pack and be ready to go in half a jiffy.

The lightweight EVA handle and foam extension give you a comfortable grip and the ability to choke up on tricky or steep terrain, while the padded, breathable, and moisture wicking strap provides lightweight support during long, arduous days. The Carbon Z also comes complete with interchangeable carbide and rubber Tech Tips, so you can confidently cross anything from rocks to snow to mud to ice without your poles letting you down.
