Black Diamond Spire Trekking Poles - 1 Pair

Black Diamond Spire Trekking Poles - 1 Pair description

Oval-shaped Elliptic shafts give the Black Diamond Spire Trekking Poles increased stability and durability to take on all the abuses dished out by long days on the trail. Black Diamond gave the Spire Trekking Poles anatomically correct, dual-density handles to make your hike as comfortable as possible. A combination of FlickLock and Binary locking mechanisms make length adjustment quick, easy, and solid to keep you going mile after mile.

FlickLock is a far superior design compared to the compression twist design. These can be easily adjusted with or without gloves. They won't collapse unexpectedly. The rest of the poles offer very good quality. A little expensive for what they are.

believe the reviews...they are top of the line...the eliptical design gives them more linear stability...they are lightweight (dont weigh much more than the CF models) and the FlickLock design is unique on these...most have two FlickLock adjustment points...this only has one...the lower section extends and is fixed in place while the upper portion has the FlickLock allowing you adjust the length...angled handles are very comfortable and absorb sweat well

I'm new to the world of trekking poles. My knees have been bothering me while hiking and out of desperation I decided to shell out some money on some poles. What a difference they make! These poles are very light weight and are ideal for a woman's height and hand size. Also, the locking system is easy to operate (the first few times it's hard to flip the locking switch). I would highly recommend these poles.
