Stiffer than traditional round shafts, the elliptical shafts of these superlightweight carbon poles offer support, stability and an effortless swing.

  • Elliptical-shaped shaft is non-rotating, offering immediate engagement with the dual FlickLock system
  • Elliptic FlickLocks allow simple and easy mid-stride, slip-proof adjustment that won't accidentally twist open like conventional twist-type adjusters
  • Three-section carbon fiber shafts create ultralight poles that absorb vibration and retain strength over a wide temperature range
  • Dual-density grips have an ergonomic 15° corrective angle for increased comfort and performance
  • Non-slip surface beneath the grip allows the hiker to drop the up-hill hand lower on the shaft while making a short traverse across a slope
  • Long, flexible carbide tips are fitted with low-profile trekking baskets and come with replaceable powder baskets for snow
  • Adjustable nubuck loops support your wrists

Please note: Black Diamond products can only be shipped to the U.S., Canada and Mexico.

Imported.

    Comments about Black Diamond Contour Elliptical Carbon Trekking Poles - Pair:

    Great things - the flick lock system and lightweight. My only complaint - one of the wrist loops started ripping after a couple days of use. I sowed it together myself but I e.g. never had that issue with the REI poles.
