The i-Run team says
Compact and lightweight, the Black Diamond Distance Carbon FLZ Z-Poles propel and support you during your trail ascents.
The 100% carbon fiber construction ensures extreme lightness. While being ultra resistant to traction and compression, the carbon remains flexible to accompany each of your movements.
Equipped with the foldable 3-strand Z-pole technology, this model offers rapid deployment and easy storage. The anti-slip extension improves grip while the strap secures the poles in all circumstances.
For perfect grip on any terrain, you have Tech tips in carbide and rubber.

Technical description
For walking, hiking, and carrying loads where stability and support are priorities: choose a pole length slightly longer than your corresponding size.
For running, where propulsion is the priority: choose a pole length shorter than your corresponding size.
Size Ranges / FLZ Z-Pole Length
< 164 cm: 95-110 cm
155-186 cm: 105-125 cm
> 172 cm: 125-140 cm

FlickLock
Stainless steel locking system for better quality, feel, and locking strength.

Système à déploiement rapide
Cone deployment technology draws inspiration from expertise in avalanche probes. It is an essential component of the robustness, stability, and speed of deploying Z-Pole trekking poles. Simply grasp the handle and the upper section of the pole, then pull them in opposite directions. The pole snaps into place with a sharp click and locks. Each rapid deployment cone serves to guide and position a section of the pole and to reinforce the joint when the pole is locked. Soft protective tips cover the Kevlar central cable of the pole when it is folded.

Fibre de carbone
It is composed of ultra-fine fibers, ranging from 5 to 15 micrometers, primarily made up of carbon atoms. These atoms are agglomerated and then aligned along the long axis of the fiber. This alignment provides it with excellent tensile and compressive strength while remaining flexible.
