FAQs

What is the main advantage of the Z-Pole technology?

The Z-Pole technology allows the poles to fold into a compact size for easy storage and transport, and deploy very quickly.

Are these poles adjustable in length?

No, the Black Diamond Distance Z Poles are fixed-length poles and do not offer length adjustment.

Can I use these poles in snow?

Yes, they are compatible with Z-Pole Snow washers, which can be purchased separately, for use in snowy conditions.

What types of tips are included?

The poles come with both carbide tips for excellent grip on hard surfaces and rubber tips for quieter traction and mixed terrain.

How do I clean the EVA foam handle?

Wipe the EVA foam handle with a slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

What is the strap made from?

The wrist strap is made from recycled materials and is designed to be breathable and moisture-resistant.

How durable are the reinforced joints?

The reinforced joints are designed to increase the strength and durability of the pole structure for reliable performance during use.

Troubleshooting

Poles won't lock securely

Ensure the pole sections are fully extended and the internal locking mechanism has clicked into place. Clean any debris from the joint areas.

Difficulty collapsing poles

Press the button at the joint firmly to release the tension before attempting to fold. If sticky, clean the joint area.

Strap feels uncomfortable

Adjust the strap for a snug but not overly tight fit. Ensure the strap is correctly oriented on your wrist. The strap material is designed to wick moisture, but excessive sweat may still be noticeable.

Tips wear out quickly

Interchangeable tips are designed to be replaced. Consider using the carbide tips for harder surfaces and rubber tips for softer or indoor surfaces to prolong tip life.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely quick to deploy and collapse.
  • Lightweight and easy to carry.
  • Durable construction with reinforced joints.
  • Comfortable grip and breathable strap.
  • Versatile with interchangeable tips and optional snow washer compatibility.

Cons

  • Fixed length design, not adjustable.
  • May not be suitable for users requiring significant height adjustment.
  • Z-pole design might feel less sturdy than one-piece poles to some users under extreme load.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: The Distance Z Poles feature a Z-Pole design that deploys by simply pulling the sections apart until the internal cord locks them into place. To collapse, press the button at the joint to release the tension and fold the pole.

Compatibility: These poles come with interchangeable carbide and rubber Tech tips for varied traction needs. They are also compatible with Z-Pole Snow washers (sold separately) for winter use.

Care: After each use, wipe the poles down with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. Ensure they are completely dry before collapsing and storing to prevent corrosion or damage to the internal cord. Periodically check the joints and tips for wear and tear. Store in a dry place away from direct sunlight.
