Premium made, lightweight to use and quick to deploy – the Black Diamond Distance FLZ Trekking Poles provide compact support for your trekking expeditions.
These compact poles have three sections and are made from light yet durable carbon.

This model is also 30% stiffer than before to offer your joints more support. Folding the poles is easy, just release the Slidelock and you can fold the poles up for easy transport.
They also feature interchangeable non-scarring tech tips, a lightweight EVA foam grip, and a moisture wicking and breathable strap for keeping your grip secure. Take on the terrain with extra stability with a pair of the Distance FLZ Trekking Poles from Black Diamond.

The best way to determine the size/length you'll need is to stand with your elbows bent at 90 degrees and get someone to measure from your hand to the ground, this measurement should fall within the size lengths of the pole. I would guess you'll need 95 - 110cm based on your height, but it's best to measure and check.

Size for hiking poles1 answer
I'm 5ft 7inches tall. What size would you recommend.
Terry - Williamstown(5 years ago)
G'day Terry,
I've double checked with our travel experts on this one for you. They recommend you go with the 105-125cm size. This size tends to be the most commonly sold for your height range and can be adjusted to the length that best suits you.

G'day Ash,
No, we don't, I'm sorry to say. The original batch of the Black Diamond Distance Carbon FLZ Trekking Poles that we received was an error. We've kept them to sell but we're not going to restock or get any other sizes of them.

G'day Paul,
Long story short, the Black Diamond Distance Carbon FLZ Trekking Poles were sent to us in error, they're not a regular stock item for us. This means that we won't be getting any more in or getting other sizes at all in the near future.

Hi Snowys, are these the new 2018 model of these poles?1 answer
Black Diamond has recently released an updated version of this pole, which is supposed to be a bit stronger and easier to adjust. Is this the 2018 model?
