The Black Diamond Distance Carbon Z Poles are the lightest Z-Poles in the brand’s range and are designed for users who move fast and want the lowest possible weight without unnecessary bulk. Built with 100% carbon construction, they use a three-section foldable design that allows for quick deployment and compact storage while moving through mountain terrain.
Their fixed-length setup and Z-Pole construction with speed-cone deployment make them especially well suited to dynamic mountain travel, trail running, and fast hiking where quick transitions matter. Black Diamond also highlights optimized joint support and increased stiffness for improved durability during regular use.
The poles feature an ultralight EVA foam grip with grip extension for easier hand-position changes on climbs and traverses. The Distance straps are made from recycled nylon and are breathable and moisture wicking, helping maintain comfort during long efforts and high-output movement.
The Distance Carbon Z also includes interchangeable Tech Tips compatible with both carbide and rubber tips, both of which are included. Removable low-profile baskets add versatility, and compatibility with Z-Pole Snow Baskets extends the poles’ usefulness across a wider range of terrain and seasons.
