"One of the best on the market"  12/25/11

These poles are super light weight and never collapse unexpectedly. BD has designed the perfect pole for high speed alpine adventures.Highly recommended for athletic people. They work very well in the snow as well.

"Awesome product"  09/30/11

I'm 6'0 and these are right about at the reach with my size. I'll mainly be using them for snowshoeing and hiking. Its good they came with powder baskets because I didn't think they did! Overall, they compact to a light size and don't weight very much.

"Great for Small Hands"  08/08/11

I used these high alpine backpacking. I put a lot of use on them in 3 weeks and never had a problem. The snow baskets are really durable. I also have small hands and these were a perfect fit. The flip locks are really fast and they stay put. Great Product.

"Great for everything"  07/28/11

I now use these every chance I get. Skiing, mountaineering, canyoneering. The locks dont slip, even when using this to catch myself from a nasty fall. The foam grips are easy to hold in a variety of ways. The points have remained nice and sharp to cut through ice despite lots of usage on rock.

"Seem very durable"  12/06/10

My wife ordred these poles and she really likes them. They are really helpful for downhill hiking, when you are going uphill you have to get into a groove or it is akward but I think this is just a learning curve. These are her first pair of poles and they are really easy to use and adjust and the clips are genius! They seem really durable! Good product.

"Awesome Trekking poles"  10/29/10

The flip locks are the way to go and the grip on these poles is very comfortable. If you're not too tall these poles will work great for you.

"Job well done Black Diamond. Job. Well. Done."  06/11/10

These trekking poles are the business! Super light. Super compact. Super affordable. Exactly what you would want in a trekking pole (or 2).The locking system is easy and effective. The handles are comfortable and ergonomic.I took these little work horses up San Jacinto a few weeks ago and they performed flawlessly. Great in snow, great on trail, great for sword fighting at camp (probably not condoned by the people at Black Diamond or Moosejaw). Bottom line? End you trekking pole search here!

"all that you need"  04/21/10

these are the best trekking poles ive used. the flick lock system works perfectly, and i love that they just come apart for easy cleaning. they are simple and effective.

"GOOD PRODUCT"  04/11/10

I bought these for my wife, I've been using the same poles myself for a year. Light weight, packs small and the flint locks are the bomb. Good product low cost.

"Very light weight, super awesome"  01/29/10

These poles work great, for the price and the weight you can't go wrong. I really enjoyed them, the quick release system to adjust the height works great - forget about unscrewing jammed poles !

"These are great!"  09/28/09

Decided to save my knees and purchase a pair of these. They are nice, lightweight and compact for easy storage when you don't need them.
