The Black Diamond Trail Cork poles pair a durable three-section aluminum shaft with Black Diamond's FlickLock adjustability, so you get a locked-in length that never slips mid-stride. Natural cork grips wick sweat and mold to your hands over time, while carbide tips and rubber grips at the base handle dirt, rock, and variable terrain. At a 140 cm extended length (about 55 inches), they cover hikers from day-trippers to long-distance backpackers.
