Review: Great Poles! - I recently use BLACK DIAMOND Distance Carbon Z trekking poles during ultramarathon training and on my 100 mile race. They impressed me from start to finish. These poles are incredibly lightweight, so I hardly noticed carrying them even on steep climbs. Despite being so light, they feel very strong and gave me dependable support on rocky and uneven trails. I also liked how quickly they break down: the Z‑fold design lets me collapse them in seconds and stash them in my pack’s quiver. The grips are comfortable for long days, and the adjustable straps kept my hands secure. Overall, the BLACK DIAMOND Distance Carbon Z poles are a great choice for runners who want reliable performance, easy storage, and minimal weight.
Review: Good quality product - The product is exactly as described—very lightweight and easy to fold or expand. However, mine arrived missing the Velcro strap used to keep it secured when folded. It’s a great product otherwise.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great lightweight poles!
*by T***9 on December 16, 2025*

I've had these for 5 or 6 months and so far they are holding up very well. I really loved my old aluminum BD Distance Z trekking poles but after about 10 years of steady use, I accidentally left them in a parking lot. I decided to try the 115cm carbon, which is a better height for me anyhow. I love the lighter weight, and while I fear they may be a little more fragile, they are serving me well. I do take care that people don't throw their heavy packs on top of them, just in case.
