Solid

I wasn?t sure about the Z Poles but once I unpacked them and snapped them together I was impressed with the quality! Only been on one hike so far. They worked flawlessly. They even survived my 7yo ?using? them. Quality poles, quick to assemble, easy to break down, light weight, and compact size for storage. Perfect for my requirements. Great job as always Black Diamond!

Great Size

These trekking poles are high quality and fold small enough to fit in a small carryon.

So good, so far!!!

I have used these poles for a couple of trail runnings and I'm extremely satisfied with them. They are really comfortable and easy to fit and fold. Can't wait to take them to another run!!!

Excellent Trekking Poles

After a week of hiking in Grand Teton National Park and Yellowstone, I can say that these trekking poles met our expectations in every aspect. They break down quite easily for packing and extend and lock just as easily. They are extremely stable and do not flex or bend. They are a great addition to our trekking/hiking gear.

Lite weight and fold up very compact.

Love these poles they are the third set (other two different manufactures I have owned over the years. They fit in my ready pack well and are a pleasure to use.

Great poles for rough terrain

I purchased these poles to help relieve strain on my knees while hiking / trailrunning. I’m a carbon fiber believer but chose the aluminum based off other reviews. One trip up and down Lone Peak made me a total believer. My triceps were sore the next day, and my knees felt great. The poles collapse down to a small enough package to be easily added to a small pack. I was using a running vest for this jaunt and found these poles could be attached easily to the outside. I hardly noticed they were there. Rubber tips are included for summer and they should double well as a backcountry pole. The poles stood up to considerable punishment as I descended the peak and I would say they are built well. Kudos to the engineering team that developed these tools.

Quick draw and quick stow

I have only used these poles for one day so far, but they were great at quickly extending and storing. I also love how small they collapse down.

Built for the long haul, no matter the season, the Distance Plus FLZ is adaptable and supportive, combining Z-Pole technology with FlickLock adjustability. With a comfortable dual-density top grip and a versatile 4-season flex tip, the Distance Plus FLZ is ready to hit the trail.

When versatility and adaptability are paramount, the Distance Plus FLZ delivers unparalleled, 4-season support. With its upgraded flex tip that excepts both a trekking and powder baskets, the Distance Plus FLZ can seamlessly switch from deep-winter mountain missions to summertime jaunts in the backcountry. And by combining Black Diamond's new SlideLock technology - which makes locking and collapsing the pole even easier - with FlickLock adjustability and the fast deployment/compactibility of Z-Pole technology, the Distance Plus FLZ provides exceptional ease-of-use and convenience in the field. The Distance Plus FLZ also boasts a dual-density top knob with an EVA foam grip that's comfortable and supportive, and webbing that's adjustable so you can dial in the fit on the trail.

Z-Pole Rapid Deployment System
• Concealed inner cord
• Single push-button release to collapse the pole
• One-pull, Speed Cone deployment

Speed Cone technology comes from Black Diamond's expertise in avalanche probe design - a key component of Z-Poles' stiffness and fast deployment. Simply grab the grip and the first shaft section, and pull them away from each other. The pole will snap into place and lock. Each Speed Cone guides a shaft section into place, and stiffens the joint when the pole is locked. Protective, flexible tube ends cover the pole's Kevlar center cord when folded.
