  • What so kitty is rocking some new trekking poles. Igot the Black Diamond distance flz the carbon fiber. You like them so far super light hey what's up guys Devin here with back country exposure we're going to talk about trekking poles today but specifically the distance carbon flz poles from Black Diamond as I've gotten older. Ihave really become to enjoy trekking poles as a great option to help. Me hike further more comfortable in the back country so let's go ahead. And talk about these carbon flz distance poles from Black Diamond. These are easily the. Most expensive pole. Ihave ever owned as far as trekking poles are concerned. Now I've used a lot of different trekking poles over the years I've had Black Diamond poles I've had two sets of Black Diamond poles actually but not as expensive as. These are I have they're like trail series. That are an aluminum pole which is a three-piece extendable Pole. This is like their Z breakdown type thing which I'll show.

    You here in a second. And then I've used poles from Perea outdoor products I've used poles from wild horn Outfitters mountain Smith's a lot of different brands. And essentially like trekking poles are. All basically the same. You really think about. It but there are certain aspects to a trekking pole. That make them more comfortable. Or super lightweight. This case this is a full carbon pole so. What you're looking at is basically the entire shaft of the pole is carbon fiber. This pole set comes in at just under a pound total which is crazy lightweight. And that's something. Ireally like about. These poles is I've been using them for the past.

    Several months they're just so light. And so easy to use they make traveling with them really easy. One of the things I don't necessarily like about. This pole though is the fact. That like Z shape breakdown which I'll go ahead. And show you right. Me lower this down push. This button in so essentially the pole breaks down in. This sense so it makes. It a really small package to be able to put in your backpack. And such but if I'm using this for a tarp type situation. Iam setting up a shelter using trekking poles then. Idon't have as much versatility in being able to drop. One end of the tarp by lowering the length. Or shortening the length of the pole like. Ican with those 3-piece poles like the wild horn Outfitters ones. Or like the other Black Diamond trail series. Ihave so something to think about. You are considering but. If you're using a pole like. This it's super lightweight to just hike fast really quick distances which essentially.

    This distance series from Black Diamond is meant. More for that type of setting but such a lightweight pole. That it's nice to have on the trail for any type of activity. That you're doing now. These does have this classic Black Diamond flick lock system to. That open then I'm able to extend. This to the different lengths. Ihave so this pole happens to be the 105 to the 120 centimeter. They do have a shorter. And then also a longer. This looking at the top of the pole you've got a molded evie a foam. Ido really like they put. These cutouts into the foam so. This makes it breathes really well on your hand so. That you've got not sweaty hands every time. You are hiking but let. Me explain one thing.

    Ido not like about. This pole in particular I'm not a huge fan of black diamonds system right here. Where they've got this piece of cordage around through the inside of the pole. Now base typically what this does is. Istick my hand through. It allows for a little bit better articulation but. Inotice that right here on the top of my hand. Where my thumb wraps around. Ikind of digs in this is sewn right here. It could just be it set right. Now but the fact that like. That is right on where my hand rubs. Where I'm trying to push down. It does cause a little bit of pain. And discomfort right on my hand so. Iwas using the pole just like. This lets's see I came down in. This manner which is not the recommended way of using a trekking pole then.

    It would be more comfortable but coming up through. And utilizing the strap around your wrist to effectively put the weight on the pole. This type of sit setup with. This strap is not ideal. Ido like how I've seen on a bunch of other poles. Even like Leki poles. And the mountain Smith wands lots of different brands. This strap will attach onto the inside. And kind of come over top of itself instead of wrapping around a piece of cordage in for a pole that's almost $200 in price. Something that can be kind of frustrating so. We take a look on the bottom end of the pole. They do have a carbide tip on here. You have the option as well with.

    What comes with the pole to be able to switch out. This tip to just like kind of standard rubber tip but the carbide tip is pretty standard for any kind of trekking pole. And then with the fact. They break down into such a small package is a really cool thing, so I'm going to show. More time you guys are probably familiar with. And other types of poles but black diamond basically are the brand. That revolutionized. What trekking poles are capable of doing and really good designs the flick lock is. One of their cool things so really small package. And then to extend you basically drop those together. And then slide this top tube down. That gives you your rigid pull so again a full carbon fiber pull really lightweight the pair is just under a pound like. Imentioned before I am a little concerned about. This button is gonna hold up over time against the carbon fiber but. It should be okay the other carbon fiber pulls. Ihad were from Fox tele. That pole actually ended up breaking which was pretty unfortunate but there's a good amount of flex in there but.

    They are super strong. And have a lot of like trust in them. And they're just a great Pole in general I'm rambling at. This point but should. Somebody spend a hundred. And eighty dollars on. This pole that's totally up to. You could get away with other types of carbon poles but. They are super lightweight. That black diamond really has a great product here well guys so. That is the carbon flz distance poles from Black Diamond. These things are awesome. You want to spend a hundred. And eighty dollars on a set of trekking poles definitely check. These out obviously there are other options out there but. This is a great one to look at so thank. You so much for watching guys I'm gonna head back out on the trail. And get on hiking and as always please subscribe to the channel. You guys have an awesome day.

Are perfect for your owns counting backpackers travelers who are looking. For trekking poles that really collapse down into luggage and people who are looking for a lightweight pair of trekking poles that don't skimp on any. Features so these are fully featured. Poles the first thing i want to point out here about these poles is they actually do have a shock absorber at the. Bottom so the dss in the naming here it. Stands for a dynamic suspension system lake ease put a lot of research and. Development into this feature and there's an elastomer here at the bottom. Close to the point of impact of the. Ground it's lightweight and it's extremely durable so it's not going to. Wear out over a long period of time and the basic function of this shock absorber is really to take out that vibration that you feel through the trekking pole when you're hiking for long days long miles on the trail. Sometimes that vibration that comes. Through the pole can irritate your wrists your elbows your shoulders and. This just dampens that vibration the. Other standout feature of these poles is that they are extremely collapsible and the way leakey achieves this is by. Having a very durable cord that runs through all shaft sections of these. Poles and they go together almost like. Tent poles they remind me of the way tent poles are designed and then all you do in order to set them up is stretch. That out and it tensions the cord that's. Inside and makes this very durable there's a push button here that comes. Out once you've got everything set up you can hear that positive click and then you've got an extremely durable pole here so really great design now. This is a carbon fiber so each of these. Shaft sections are extremely lightweight perfect for those ounce can in backpackers and this does have an. Adjustable range these will adjust from. A hundred and ten centimeters all the. Way up to a hundred and thirty centimeters so fully-featured trekking. Pole here on those days where you may be. Climbing or descending and you really want to make quick adjustments it's perfect you can also really just dial in the exact length of trekking poles that you. Need and this is lake ease speed lock.

To the proper height and then flick it closed and you've got a really secure lock while we're up here on the grips. You do have an ergonomic leakey air gan. Grip there are thermo grips so you've got really comfortable foam here and the. Thing i really like about foam grips is they work well in all temperatures and in all seasons so in the summer if your. Hands begin to perspire this really. Wicks away sweat and you can keep a. Secure grip there with your hands but. Also in the winter this material works well with gloves you have an extended. Grip here so if you need to grip the pole at a different spot that's really easy and then you have this egg-shaped top that's really great for palming the. Top of the pole so a nice wide top there. And then obviously you've gotten adjustable straps they're really comfortable they're lightweight and you can adjust them to just take the strain. Off of your wrists as you're hiking moving down the pole you have leki's carbide flex tips it's a very durable. Tip here and you have that carbide end. So that's going to last a really long time and the thing that's great about these tips is that they do flex a little. Bit if they're put under a lot of pressure so let's say they're caught between two rocks it's going to take the. Force away from the actual shaft sections of the poles and this tip is going to take most of that force so it's going to protect the poll it's going to last a long time and they are replaceable you do get just a narrow. Diameter basket here there is a thread. On the tips so you can take these. Baskets off and put a snow basket on. There if you need to so with all the features here you get a very lightweight set of poles with that carbon construction they're extremely collapsible so they're. Great for travel they're great for those ounce counting backpackers who don't want to skimp on any features you've got all the adjustability you need in a very comfortable grip they're the leakey micro vario carbon dss anti-shock.

For trekking poles that really collapse down into luggage and people who are looking for a lightweight pair of trekking poles that don't skimp on any. Features so these are fully featured. Poles the first thing i want to point out here about these poles is they actually do have a shock absorber at the. Bottom so the dss in the naming here it. Stands for a dynamic suspension system lake ease put a lot of research and. Development into this feature and there's an elastomer here at the bottom. Close to the point of impact of the. Ground it's lightweight and it's extremely durable so it's not going to. Wear out over a long period of time and the basic function of this shock absorber is really to take out that vibration that you feel through the trekking pole when you're hiking for long days long miles on the trail. Sometimes that vibration that comes. Through the pole can irritate your wrists your elbows your shoulders and. This just dampens that vibration the. Other standout feature of these poles is that they are extremely collapsible and the way leakey achieves this is by. Having a very durable cord that runs through all shaft sections of these. Poles and they go together almost like. Tent poles they remind me of the way tent poles are designed and then all you do in order to set them up is stretch. That out and it tensions the cord that's. Inside and makes this very durable there's a push button here that comes. Out once you've got everything set up you can hear that positive click and then you've got an extremely durable pole here so really great design now. This is a carbon fiber so each of these. Shaft sections are extremely lightweight perfect for those ounce can in backpackers and this does have an. Adjustable range these will adjust from. A hundred and ten centimeters all the. Way up to a hundred and thirty centimeters so fully-featured trekking. Pole here on those days where you may be. Climbing or descending and you really want to make quick adjustments it's perfect you can also really just dial in the exact length of trekking poles that you. Need and this is lake ease speed lock. It's an external lock it couldn't be any easier to adjust basically you just. Flick it open with your thumb adjust it. To the proper height and then flick it closed and you've got a really secure lock while we're up here on the grips. You do have an ergonomic leakey air gan. Grip there are thermo grips so you've got really comfortable foam here and the. Thing i really like about foam grips is they work well in all temperatures and in all seasons so in the summer if your. Hands begin to perspire this really. Wicks away sweat and you can keep a. Secure grip there with your hands but. Also in the winter this material works well with gloves you have an extended. Grip here so if you need to grip the pole at a different spot that's really easy and then you have this egg-shaped top that's really great for palming the. Top of the pole so a nice wide top there. And then obviously you've gotten adjustable straps they're really comfortable they're lightweight and you can adjust them to just take the strain. Off of your wrists as you're hiking moving down the pole you have leki's carbide flex tips it's a very durable. Tip here and you have that carbide end. So that's going to last a really long time and the thing that's great about these tips is that they do flex a little. Bit if they're put under a lot of pressure so let's say they're caught between two rocks it's going to take the. Force away from the actual shaft sections of the poles and this tip is going to take most of that force so it's going to protect the poll it's going to last a long time and they are replaceable you do get just a narrow. Diameter basket here there is a thread. On the tips so you can take these. Baskets off and put a snow basket on. There if you need to so with all the features here you get a very lightweight set of poles with that carbon construction they're extremely collapsible so they're. Great for travel they're great for those ounce counting backpackers who don't want to skimp on any features you've got all the adjustability you need in a very comfortable grip they're the leakey micro vario carbon dss anti-shock.
