Black Diamond Pursuit Carbon Z Trekking Poles

Picture the last stretch of a long descent, knees barking, pack heavier than it was at sunrise. The Black Diamond Pursuit Carbon Z Trekking Poles take that edge off every step, folding down fast with Z-Pole speed cone deployment so you can stow them at the trailhead and snap them back out the moment the climb gets real. Built for thru-hiking, backpacking, and peak bagging, the carbon shafts keep swing weight low mile after mile, while the ergonomic cork grips with a 5-degree tilt settle into your hand naturally and cut down on fatigue when you lean into a steep pitch. Recycled Bloom grip extensions give you a choke-up option for sidehill traction without adding bulk, and the ultralight airmesh straps stay comfortable through a full day on trail. Swap between the included trekking and snow baskets and the 4-season flex tips handle everything from dusty switchbacks to early-season snowfields, so one set of poles covers your whole hiking calendar.
