The quick-fold Z-Pole design is incredibly convenient for packing.""When speed and efficiency are our goals, the Black Diamond Distance Carbon Z Trekking Poles are the perfect companion. At just 140 grams per pole (120cm), these are the lightest Z-Poles in Black Diamond’s lineup, designed for those who move fast and travel light. The fixed-length, three-section foldable design deploys instantly with Z-Pole speed cone technology, making setup and breakdown effortless. Crafted from 100% carbon fiber, the Distance Carbon Z Poles maintain impressive durability despite their featherlight weight. A lightweight EVA foam grip and moisture-wicking strap, made from recycled materials, keep us comfortable during long efforts. Interchangeable carbide and rubber tips, along with removable low-profile baskets, ensure adaptability across varying terrains, making these poles essential for trail runners, thru-hikers, and alpine adventurers alike."
