The Black Diamond Distance FLZ is a flick-locked, 3 section trekking pole ideal for long hikes, steep approaches, and even for supporting your tarp-shelter.
Refined and rebuilt - the Black Diamond trekking pole series have evolved! Combining the amazing packability of a 3-section Z-Pole with the adjustability of FlickLock Pro, the Black Diamond Distance FLZ poles are a mainstay for hard-hitting mountain athletes. Pole-locking is secure, fast and easy, and a three-section foldable design allows for fast-response deployment. The lightweight aluminium design is strong and durable and was built for the mountains.

Speed Cone technology comes from Black Diamonds 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® centre cord when folded.
