Black diamond distance flz review.
Like a good adventure partner black diamond distance flz trekking poles are strong and supportive when you re bonking and adjust quickly when the terrain changes perfect for hiking or trail running.
Comfort the carbon flz features a foam handle with a ribbed grip area for extra friction.
Read honest and unbiased product reviews from our users.
The distance flz is lighter than our editors choice the black diamond alpine carbon cork and top pick the alpine carbon z both an ounce heavier at 17 oz.
At the 2019 giants head marathon i got the chance to use some running poles for the first time.
Experienced runner ben pitfield had a chance to test the black diamond distance carbon flz trekking running poles during the event.
The distance carbon flz is the top of the range trekking pole from black diamond.
Now improved with our slidelock technology and increased joint durability the distance z provides reliable three season support for a wide array of mountain adventures.
Combining the amazing compactibility of a z pole with flicklock the distance flz is an excellent choice for long hikes and steep approaches.
The black diamond distance plus flz trekking poles are an aluminum trekking pole utilizing black diamonds z pole technology and are designed so that they can be reconfigured by changing baskets and tips so that they can be used all year long in a variety of terrain.
They re super light a pair weighs between 345 and 365 grams depending on size thanks to carbon construction and they fold down into thirds using the z pole rapid deployment system.
