At Black Diamond, its all about mountain sports. They share the same experiences that you do on rock, ice, and snow. These experiences push them to design, engineer and build the most innovative mountain gear and apparel in the world.

The Carbon Compactor by Black Diamond is a lightweight, foldable pole which makes it great for splitboarding or travel.
Key Features:
- Carbon Shaft – Black Diamond uses carbon instead of aluminum on the Carbon Compactor to significantly cut down on weight without ruining strength properties.
- Adjustable Length – The poles offer a good range of lengths for larger and smaller outdoors folk, with different sizes that are adjustable.
- Steel Tip – The steel pole tip can break through ice and hard snow.

 Throw it into a backpack, makes it easy for traveling. Still high grade aluminum construction. A good Black Diamond flick lock mechanism here. Very durable as far as that goes

The Compactor Poles are a great addition to your gear collection! These are a solid, lightweight adjustable pole that can be used for resort skiing and of course in the sidecountry and backcountry. The Compactors can be adjusted between 46-54in (115-135cm). These poles are also collapsible so you can collapse these poles down to throw in your pack, which is what BC snowboarders will love (unless of course you like to ride with poles, which you shouldn't). Trust us you won't be able to find BD poles at a price this low, tell your friends!

Black Diamond Compactor Ski Poles - YouTube

 Hi, it's Nicholas from Level 9 Sports. So this is the Black Diamond Compactor Ski and Snowboard

 Pole. Yes, I said snowboard. This is a pole that can obviously compact into a very small package.

 If you're a split boarder, you can pack this up, throw it in your backpack. Skiers can use as well.

 It's pull it, slide it out, lock it. That's your ski pole. And then you've got a little bit of

 adjustment here. So you can go from 115 all the way up to 135. So not quite as much adjustment as

 a regular alpine trekking pole. But the versatility behind this pole is the fact that it compresses

 down and makes a very compressible ski pole. Throw it into a backpack, makes it easy for

 traveling. Still high grade aluminum construction. A good Black Diamond flick lock mechanism here.

This article was first published on December 8, 2014, and was most recently updated on August 8, 2022. 

Black Diamond has also updated the deployment with improvements for durability and ease of use.

The Black Diamond Carbon Compactor is also an ultralight pole that is strong and resilient. These poles will give you the support you need in the backcountry, in steep terrain, or on a slope.

In addition to the Z-pole technology and ultralight materials, the grip is a soft-touch rubber with a touring strap. These poles also include Compact Powder Baskets, which are needed when snowshoeing.

Black Diamond's Carbon Compactor Pole Review: Height of Performance and Convenience

 We've also have a softer grip where you'll actually be holding the pole and then a little bit harder at the top so that for your bindings or if you're checking to snowpack there's a harder top to the pole as well. The whole pole lineup features the new flick lock edition.

Here's the latest and greatest for Black Diamond's new collapsable and adjustable backcountry ski poles for winter 12/13.

Black Diamond Compactor Ski Poles - SIA '12 Gear ... - YouTube

 New from Black Diamond for F12, it's a whole new ski pole lineup and one of the more unique

 things about the new pole lineup is our new flick lock device.

 Very simple to operate, flick with the thumb or with the palm if you have a big glove on.

 It is stainless steel so it doesn't rust, it's stronger and the design itself is sleeker

 making it 20% lighter than our old design.

 So you'll see the new flick lock incorporated across the new lineup of poles.

 This pole in particular is the compactor, the pole then is collapsible, ideal for a

 set of traveling poles and or alpinists, snowshoers or backcountry snowboarders.

 We've fluted the grips themselves to make them lighter.

The K2 Style Carbon Women's Ski Poles are a great addition to K2s collection of technologically advanced ski gear. The Carbon Web Technology allows the poles to remain light while strengthening them even more. These poles are for advanced or expert-level women skiers looking to upgrade gear and take skiing to the next level.
Key Features:
- Carbon Web Technology – Carbon is laminated into the side of the pole, creating a web of sorts. This strengthens the pole without adding any weight.
- Rip Cord Grip Safety Release Straps – A cored-out grip makes these poles even lighter, and the straps can release for safety.
- 14 mm Carbon Shaft – The 14 mm carbon shafts are strong and light.

I reviewed the original aluminum K2 Lockjaw ski poles last year, and they worked well. Mine are now a little beat up, and K2 has improved the poles quite a bit for the next iteration — so time for another review.  I tried out the carbon version this time around. Aluminum poles have the advantage of bending instead of breaking, while carbon poles are stronger and lighter but can splinter into sharp shards when they do break

  I tried out the carbon version this time around. Aluminum poles have the advantage of bending instead of breaking, while carbon poles are stronger and lighter but can splinter into sharp shards when they do break. Yep, tradeoffs. The k2 lockjaw has an aluminum upper section, with a large diameter carbon lower section
