REVIEWS
"I bought these poles along with snow baskets for backpacking hiking adventures in Colorado. After half a dozen hikes, I'm very pleased."
"stable & strong DOE must have"
"Super lightweight with comfortable handles. The cork grip is a major step up from the foam/plastic handle on my old poles." -
WHAT WE THINK
We’ve been using the Black Diamond Alpine Carbon Cork Trekking Poles on some of our most demanding hikes, and honestly, they’ve become our go-to poles for anything from technical climbs to long distance hikes when they are also used for our trekking pole shelters.
We love the balance of strength and weight—they’re perfect when you’re pushing hard over long distances, and we never feel like we're dragging extra weight. The cork grips are a real game changer. They’re so comfortable, even after hours on the trail. They absorb sweat, and we’ve noticed they don’t slip as much as foam or rubber grips, which is a huge plus when things get sweaty or wet. Whether it’s rain, snow, or just a long, humid summer hike, these grips always feel like a natural extension of our hands.
We also can’t get enough of the FlickLock™ Pro system. It’s one of the easiest, most secure locking mechanisms we’ve used. We can quickly adjust the length when we need to, and we never worry about the poles slipping, even on uneven ground or when we’re putting our weight on them. The extended grip area comes in handy too—especially on those sections where you need to switch grips quickly without slowing down. Sure, they’re not the absolute lightest poles on the market, but the extra durability and comfort make them worth every gram. -
