"What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:""I like these for touring because they’re super reliable and easy to adjust on the fly. The FlickLock system is quick and secure, and the extended foam grip makes it easy to choke up on steeper terrain. They’re tough enough for winter but versatile enough to use year-round.""We trust the Expedition Johnny Collinson Ski Poles when the terrain is steep, the snow is deep, and the day stretches beyond a single season. Black Diamond teamed up with athlete Johnny Collinson to create a pole that thrives in the backcountry while remaining versatile enough for year-round adventure. Built with a durable aluminum construction, these poles stand up to demanding conditions from powder days to summer scrambles. The FlickLock system allows quick, secure adjustments on the move, while the extended foam grip gives us multiple hand positions for changing terrain. A dual-density grip top helps with quick binding and buckle adjustments, and the vari-width strap keeps things comfortable whether we’re wearing gloves or going light. Designed for reliability and adaptability, these poles are ready for wherever the next line—or trail—takes us."
