BLACK DIAMOND Distance FLZ Trekking Poles (Pair) – Aluminum Z-Pole, FlickLock | Pewter, 140 cm

Introducing the BLACK DIAMOND Distance FLZ Trekking Poles

Meet a lightweight, versatile pairing designed for hikers, trail runners, and mountain travelers who value dependable support without adding bulk. The pewter finish pairs cleanly with outdoor gear, and when extended to 140 cm, they’re ready for varied terrain—from gentle switchbacks to steeper ascents. The combination of collapsible design and rugged aluminum makes them easy to pack and travel with, whether in a daypack or car-ready tote.

At the heart of these poles is the Adjustable Z-Pole technology. The hybrid design blends a quick-deploy Z-Pole system with FlickLock adjustability, enabling fast setup and on-the-fly length changes. As terrain shifts—from rolling grades to exposed ridges—you can tailor the length to your stride and the slope, helping you stay balanced and confident on uneven ground.

Durability meets comfort with high-strength aluminum shafts that maintain stiffness and reliability over long days on trail. The EVA foam grips feel soft to the touch and are moisture-wicking, with extended mini-grip sections that deliver secure control on steeper ascents or with gloves. The overall feel is stable and responsive, giving you a tactile sense of control whether you’re pacing a climb or absorbing a rocky descent.

All-terrain performance is built in. Carbide Tech Tips provide solid traction on dirt, rock, and snow, while interchangeable rubber tips and trekking baskets let you adapt for different seasons and conditions. This modular approach supports a smooth transition between trail, alpine routes, and seasonal use, reducing the need for multiple gear changes mid-journey.
