Poles Distance Carbon Z-Tent Pole Black Diamond

The Distance Carbon Z-Tent Black Diamond is an ultra-light hiking/trail pole thanks to its 100% carbon composition.
Its innovative handle construction allows it to be used as a pole for the Distance Tent W/Zpoles. So no need to take the poles of the tents on treks, the sticks replace them and the weight gain is considerable.

Featuring Z-Pole technology, the Distance Carbon Z-Tent offers quick deployment and very compact storage when folded (38 cm).
It has the FlickLock adjustment system, interchangeable and non-marking Tech Tips, as well as a light and adherent EVA foam handle (very good grip).

The junctions between the strands are reinforced by an aluminum ring for more solidity and for better hold of the stick over time. Another function, Black Diamond offers the possibility to the practitioner to adapt a snow washer (optional).

The Z-Pole Rapid Deployment System:

Cone deployment technology is inspired by Black Diamond's know-how in avalanche probes, it is an essential component of the robustness, stability and speed of deployment of Z-Pole poles.
Just grab the handle and the top end of the pole and then pull them each in an opposite direction. The stick snaps into place and locks.
Each Rapid Deployment Cone is used to guide and position one strand of the stick and then to secure the junction when the stick is locked.
Soft protective end caps cover the central Kevlar cable of the pole when folded.

The Z-Pole Rapid Deployment System has three unique elements:
• An invisible internal cord/cable
• A simple push button to fold the strand
• One-step rapid cone deployment

The "FlickLock" adjustment system (valve):

The FlickLock size adjustment system was designed with efficiency, compactness and ease of use in mind.
The FlickLock adjustment is top notch when it comes to fast styling and lightness.
Because the mountain requires reliable and resistant equipment, FlickLock technology offers safe, quick and simple adjustments and makes hours spent on the trail easier.

Help with choosing the size of the Z-Pole sticks:

• For walking, hiking and carrying, where the criteria of stability and support are a priority: choose a pole size slightly larger than the one that suits you.
• For racing, where the uphill propulsion criterion is a priority: choose a pole size slightly smaller than the one that suits you.
