Hi i'm colin power the climbing category director black diamond and this is our new vision harness this is the lightest. Weight full functioning harness on the market 224 grams designed really for alpine climbing for gear loops low-profile gear loops for. Ice buffer slots a super thin. Low-profile belay loop fixed legs it's super packable and really lightweight. Like i said 224 grams so having a. Lightweight harness is one thing but having it really packable is another so it takes up less space in your pack not exactly on the comfortable side of the. Scale though a lot of the guys have been wearing this thing sport climbing and it's like totally fine really really minimalistic 149 95 available in january. Of 2018. Pretty sick it's pretty sick what we did. With this was we took our kinetic core construction from our zeno center chaos. And our ethos this is really the guts of that we stripped all the shell and everything off and left the the bare bones basically the skeleton so this is. Vector and fiber super strong doesn't absorb water really packable really lightweight made the width balance. Between comfort and pack ability way more comfortable than you would think but it's alpine rig it's designed for alpine climbing no adjustment on the leg loops you know the only adjustment is the waist belt to get it on and off and this belay loop is super cool it's. Basically one strand of super high-tech. Fiber that's wrapped around like a doughnut and then wrapped in this casing. So it's not like that most belay loops are a piece of webbing that's folded into looping and bar tack so that's how we could get this to be so strong and so small and it's way way way over built we. Could even make it smaller and it would still meet all the requirements but it would get to the point you'd be freaked out we actually played with the diameter. Of this tubing a lot because our other. Have thicker but then it's it's not as. Packable we found this to be a good balance between functionality and pack ability if you put nothing on it then it's really hard especially with gloves and jackets and stuff in packs some ski mountaineer is gonna wear this you go to the tetons you want a real harness that's really light in packs well 224 grams that's insane it's only 5 grams i. Think heavier than the kawar which i would classify as not a full functioning harness you know yes you can wrap it and. Stuff like that but you know it's got the diaper legs and no gear loop you know that kind of thing so this is like got everything you need on it called the. Vision because we thought that these climbers that are looking at these crazy north faces in the mountains like they have the vision to link up these ice smears and stuff this is the kind of harness that they want to wear sadly we. Made it for kyle dempster that's who we made it for and he had our first prototype when we lost him last fall you. Know we made it for those guys for kyle haydon kennedy urban novak you know. Marko appraisal like these kind of dudes you know that are really pushing it but of course anyone can use it for anything they want but we really wanted to make it for those kind of guys that are pushing the limits in the mountains.

LEKI Micro Vario Cor-Tec TA Trekking Poles - Women's
A map, a weather forecast, and a trail guide can only tell you so much—you never really know what's waiting for you on a backpacking trip, but you can stay prepared for it all with the Leki Micro Vario Cor-Tec TA Trekking Poles. These poles have the light weight, easy packability, and versatile trail performance you need for whatever lies ahead. Thanks to their Micro Vario folding system they can pack down to just 15 inches, making them easy to lash onto your pack when you need your hands free on rocky scrambles. And they're not just foldable, they've got 8 inches of adjustable range to keep you prepared for changing terrain, as well as an extended non-slip grip that lets you choke up when you come across steep and rocky trails. The soft and ergonomic cork grip delivers a comfortable and supportive hand feel, while a carbide metal tip ensures a steady hold on varying trail surfaces in any conditions.
We're taking a closer look at the leakey micro vario to core tech lady trekking. Poles these are an excellent option for. Someone who's looking for a collapsible. And lightweight pole that also has a lot of features and is great for travel. Hiking backpacking and anything else you. Can throw at it the standout feature and. The thing i want to talk about first with these poles is just the collapse. Ability so this isn't your traditional. Telescoping pole where all the segments kind of go inside of each other and telescope down this is truly a collapsible pole so as you can see there. Is a central cord that runs through each. Of the sections here and it's very durable but once you set the pole up the. The pole is very strong so again the. Collapsible length collapses down really small easy to throw in your pack in your. Luggage if you're traveling if you're not using the poles during a particular. Part of your hike you can either lash them to the outside or just throw them right inside the pack so setup is it's. Pretty simple once you get the hang of it again you have that central cord that. Runs through the sections and the first. Think i do is i attach the sections it. Almost reminds me of the way a tent pole is structured so each of the segments. Lock inside of each other and the second. Think you want to do is find the two. Separate sections here up towards the top of the pole you want to. Separate them and once you have pulled. Then far enough you will hear a positive click and a little button will make itself known they're the first couple. Times you do it might feel like you have to pull on that a little bit harder than you would like but that's just to get a very secure hold so once i do that. I pull it. And you have a positive click now all of. The pole sections are securely connected. To one another this is an adjustable. Pole so unlike some other collapsible. Lightweight poles like this it's not. Fixed length you can definitely adjust. From 100 centimeters all the way up to. 120 so you do have a lot of versatility. With this pole and you don't have to. Worry about not getting the correct fit. For your height to adjust the pole right. Now i have it set at its lowest usable length which is 100 centimeters but it's. Really easy to adjust with leakey speed. Lock so in order to adjust it all you. Have to do is open the lock adjust it to. Your preferred height I'm gonna adjust it all the way up to 120 centimeters and. When you do that it just it stops here at the top so you know you're at its highest point and then close the lock. With your thumb it's as easy as that there's no twisting no turning it's just. Open and closed leakey uses their argon. Grips for this pole which is a really. High-quality argon ama comfortable. Handle they definitely don't skimp there. So really great handle on there and. You've got a an extended grip here so if. You want to grip the pole at a different. Height while you're hiking you don't have to make those minor adjustments you don't have to make the adjustments as often if you know just want to grab. The pole at a different height along. With that and on the air gan grip you have an egg-shaped top so if you want to. Have your hand on top of the pole you want to palm the pole it really fits. Nicely into the palm of your hand and has some dimpling there and some resistance so it's really easy to grip the top you also have a really. Soft nice woven strap here and it's. Really easy to adjust for your height take the pressure off of your wrists. With a strap so to adjust this all you. Do is pull up on the top portion of the. Strap you can make it longer or shorter. And then just pull down on the top and. It locks in it's a really comfortable lightweight soft straps they're going. Down to the tip of the trekking pole leakey uses their carbide flex tips and what this means is that there is a. Carbide end it's very durable it's the part that comes into contact with the ground and gives you traction and it. Does come standard with a small performance basket so this is you know definitely a lightweight design come standard on this type of pole but if you. Want to use one of like use other snow. Baskets this is removable so you can. Screw that off and put a bigger basket. On if you choose the important thing to. Now about the carbide flex tips by. Leakey is that this section of the pole in the unlikely event that your pole. Gets stuck between rocks or is put in a position that might seriously damage. Your trekking pole this part is meant to. Break away first it's a lot easier to. Replace the trekking pole tip than it is. To replace your trekking poles altogether so this is a replaceable part. It's also helpful to know that you know. If you use your poles for many years and you do want to replace the tips this is a replaceable part and you. Can get a replacement for it. Leakey does include a lightweight stuff. Sack so when you collapse your poles down you can store them safely inside this is really convenient for travel or. Just for storage all in all this is a. Really great multifunctional pole you've. Got that durable aluminum cans struction the collapsible lengths of the. Poles makes them easy for travel and you've just got a lot of features all in. One pole it is the leakey micro vario ti. Core tech lady trekking poles.
