The Black Diamond Trail Vista Shock Walking Poles are designed for hikers and backpackers seeking reduced joint fatigue on demanding terrain. These poles provide the essential benefit of integrated shock-absorbing technology that dampens vibrations during long descents. While they offer exceptional comfort and stability, users should note that the internal shock mechanism adds slightly more weight compared to fixed-shaft alternatives.

Yes, but you may want to purchase compatible snow baskets to prevent the poles from sinking into deep snow.
Use a soft brush or a damp cloth with mild soap to remove dirt and sweat buildup, then let them air dry away from direct heat.
Yes, the fully lined wrist straps feature an easy-to-use webbing adjustment system for a secure and comfortable fit.
These poles typically adjust up to 125-130cm, making them suitable for most average-height hikers.
Yes, the Flex tips are designed to be removable and replaceable once they show signs of significant wear.
Open the FlickLock lever and tighten the adjustment screw clockwise by a small increment until the lever provides firm resistance when closing.
Adjust the tension screw on the FlickLock mechanism. If it is too hard to close, loosen the screw slightly; if it is too easy to close, tighten it.
Ensure all sections are properly extended and locked. If the rattle persists, check if the internal shock absorber spring has shifted; if it continues, contact support for inspection.
To set up your poles, open the FlickLock lever, extend the segments to your desired length—ideally with your elbow at a 90-degree angle while standing—and close the lever until it snaps securely. If the pole slides while the lever is locked, tighten the adjustment screw on the side of the FlickLock by a quarter turn. For care, always collapse the poles after use and ensure they are completely dry before storage to prevent internal corrosion. If the poles become dusty or muddy, wipe the aluminum shafts with a damp cloth and allow them to air dry. Periodically check the Flex tips for wear and replace them if the carbide becomes dull to ensure consistent traction on various trail surfaces.
