Black Diamonds lightest Z-Pole built for mountain athletes and weight conscious adventurers, the Distance Carbon Z is now stronger with improved joint support and durability, making it the ultimate in folding-pole performance.

OutdoorGearLab

The Black Diamond Distance Z are simple, lightweight, and high-performance poles at a lower price than their carbon fiber counterparts. They feature the same design as the Distance Carbon Z, and the aluminum shaft construction adds only two ounces per pair compared to the carbon version. At the same time, they retain the same compact size and minimal yet comfortable grip design as the carbon version. We love both versions of this pole, and since the aluminum-shafted Distance Z costs so much less than the carbon version, they are a great option for those seeking lightweight performance at a reasonable price.
These poles don't offer any adjustability, so you need to be mindful when selecting your size. Other grips on the market are more comfortable. We dislike the thin wrist straps on the Distance Z for hikers or trekkers carrying heavy packs. But for the average day hike, mountain run, or casual backpacking trip, these poles are durable, simple, and affordable. 
Read more: Black Diamond Distance Z review

The Black Diamond Distance Carbon Z offers great performance at a low weight. This model shaves ounces by incorporating carbon fiber shafts, foam grips, and stripped-down features. Often, lighter poles can feel cheap or flimsy, but that's not the case here. Although we don't use these poles for heavy-duty trekking or backpacking, the Carbon Z is relatively versatile and excels in lightweight backpacking, hiking, trail running, or approaching technical climbs. 
The Carbon Z isn't adjustable. Instead, it comes in four different lengths, so carefully identify your size before purchasing. Furthermore, the grips aren't the most comfortable, but they're not bad either. The sacrifices in comfort and adjustability won't be a big deal for weight-shaving enthusiasts. These are the poles we found ourselves reaching for most spring, fall, and summer days.

 There's a little plastic doodad here that's supposed to clip into the poles and hold them but to be honest after literally a few uses they wear a bit and they don't really hold properly but it doesn't matter because the bungees here on the bag will actually just hold the poles together when you're not using them. And you just simply put the bungee around like that which you can do, I can even do one-handed look while I'm videoing and then that just holds your poles just in front of you here so you would have with your chest here you'd have a water bottle on your chest like I have in a few pouches of things and then I tend to put either one pole on either side or two poles in one which I kind of prefer actually. Extended this one's 110 I'm about five foot seven I'd say I'm five eight but I'm not five for seven. If you're a slightly taller bloke if you're above five foot ten five foot eleven you probably want 120 but most people the 110 suits and to pack them up super easy and I'm even going to try it one-handed so there's a very little button here a little metal button that you just press in here we go see if I can do it with one hand yeah so you just press the button in and then the handle slides down a little bit and then that gives the leeway for these to just pull apart and they kind of fold themselves like the magic of cinema they fold themselves together like that so and these little bits at the end do a superb job of just holding these bits together and obviously as you can imagine when you're trekking if you've got these mounted on the front of your bag you simply take pull them out the bungees I tend to hold them here let go and they drop down and then all you do is you can see they're loose this little section here you grab it firmly you said and pull and you'll hear the snap and that button locks in that little bottle that little button there locks in and now the pole is super sturdy and ready to use so they're super quick and easy to deploy they're super strong they're super lightweight I've tried various makes and models of carbon trekking poles and broken almost all of them but these are my absolute favorites and they're the ones that I use so there you go that just gives you a little bit of a look at the black diamond carbon distance Z poles and why they're an absolute favorite of mine

 So they pack up into sort of three pieces, they go through the two bungees on an Ultimate Direction on the front there so you can see they'll just sit on the front of a backpack so that you can easily grab them and stow them away again super super fast. You can see size-wise that's the span of my hand, they're not much bigger than that and they pack up into three little pieces. At this end I tend to prefer the carbide tip, it seems to grip on almost everything. Some people go for the rubber grips but I don't think they're any good

 They're carbon fibre so you can probably just see by the way I'm handling them. They are incredibly light, they literally weigh a couple of ounces. You'll notice from some changes I've made, I've actually cut the blue handles off the top, the straps that they have, I think they're dangerous. I don't like having straps on poles, I'm not a fan

Black Diamond Distance Carbon Z Trekking Poles Review

 So, I thought I'd do a quick video just to walk you through my super-favourite trekking

 These are the Black Diamond Carbon Distance Z, it's quite a big mouthful, trekking poles.

 You can see by, hopefully you can see by the wear on them, I've had these about three years,

 They have done thousands of miles and they're still running beautifully.

 They're carbon fibre so you can probably just see by the way I'm handling them.

 They are incredibly light, they literally weigh a couple of ounces.

 You'll notice from some changes I've made, I've actually cut the blue handles off the

 top, the straps that they have, I think they're dangerous.

 I don't like having straps on poles, I'm not a fan.

 And basically what happens is they start off, I've just put these on a bag just to show

 you how I would mount them on a backpack.

 So this is an Ultimate Direction backpack and the poles actually just mount just to

 the sides of where the water bottles go on the front chest and you can see when they're

 So they pack up into sort of three pieces, they go through the two bungees on an Ultimate

 Direction on the front there so you can see they'll just sit on the front of a backpack

 so that you can easily grab them and stow them away again super super fast.

 You can see size-wise that's the span of my hand, they're not much bigger than that and

 At this end I tend to prefer the carbide tip, it seems to grip on almost everything.

 Some people go for the rubber grips but I don't think they're any good.

 There's a little plastic doodad here that's supposed to clip into the poles and hold them

 but to be honest after literally a few uses they wear a bit and they don't really hold

 properly but it doesn't matter because the bungees here on the bag will actually just

 hold the poles together when you're not using them.

 And you just simply put the bungee around like that which you can do, I can even do

 one-handed look while I'm videoing and then that just holds your poles just in front of

 you here so you would have with your chest here you'd have a water bottle on your chest

 like I have in a few pouches of things and then I tend to put either one pole on either

 side or two poles in one which I kind of prefer actually.

 Extended this one's 110 I'm about five foot seven I'd say I'm five eight but I'm not five

 If you're a slightly taller bloke if you're above five foot ten five foot eleven you probably

 want 120 but most people the 110 suits and to pack them up super easy and I'm even going

 to try it one-handed so there's a very little button here a little metal button that you

 just press in here we go see if I can do it with one hand yeah so you just press the button

 in and then the handle slides down a little bit and then that gives the leeway for these

 to just pull apart and they kind of fold themselves like the magic of cinema they fold themselves

 together like that so and these little bits at the end do a superb job of just holding

 these bits together and obviously as you can imagine when you're trekking if you've got

 these mounted on the front of your bag you simply take pull them out the bungees I tend

 to hold them here let go and they drop down and then all you do is you can see they're

 loose this little section here you grab it firmly you said and pull and you'll hear the

 snap and that button locks in that little bottle that little button there locks in and

 now the pole is super sturdy and ready to use so they're super quick and easy to deploy

 they're super strong they're super lightweight I've tried various makes and models of carbon

 trekking poles and broken almost all of them but these are my absolute favorites and they're
