BLACK DIAMOND Distance Carbon Z Trekking Poles (Pair) | Ultralight Carbon Fiber, Z-Pole Folding, Desert Sky 110 cm

Overview

Meet the BLACK DIAMOND Distance Carbon Z Trekking Poles, a pair designed for runners and hikers who want air-light efficiency without sacrificing stability. Built from 100% carbon fiber, these poles balance stiffness with featherweight handling, so you can move with confidence on mixed terrain. The Desert Sky finish adds a distinctive look that stands out on sunlit ridges.

Fast deployment, compact storage

The Z-Pole folding design unfolds with a single pull and folds down small, slipping into a compact pack or vest. The fixed-length configuration eliminates moving parts, delivering predictable, rigid response on uneven ground. At 110 cm, they strike a balance between reach and liveliness for fast-paced routes.

Comfort that lasts

Ergonomic EVA foam grips keep hands comfortable through long efforts, and breathable straps wick moisture to reduce slip. Mini-grip extensions on the upper section help you maintain control on switchbacks and steep ascents, even when your palms sweat.

All-terrain traction

Carbide tips bite into rock, dirt, and snow for secure footing, and the system is compatible with interchangeable rubber tips and snow baskets for seasonal versatility.
