Quick Overview

Light, strong folding pole for compact carrying.

Black Diamond's popular Distance Carbon Z is BD's lightest Z-Pole. Built for mountain athletes and weight-conscious adventurers, this updated version of the Distance Carbon Z is stronger, more durable and has improved joint support, making it the ultimate in folding-pole performance.

With 100% carbon construction, the Distance Carbon Z weighs just 273g and features a three-section foldable design that allows for fast-response deployment. We’ve improved the Distance Carbon Z’s joint support making them 30% stiffer, and they’re now more durable with reinforcements around the locking mechanism and upper shaft. Non-scarring rubber Tech Tips and a lightweight, EVA foam grip round out this pole as a lightweight detail-driven pillar in pole tech.


The poles come in fixed length. See our size guide here:

Z-POLE RAPID DEPLOYMENT SYSTEM
  • Concealed inner cord
  • Single push-button release to collapse the pole
  • One-pull, Speed Cone deployment
  • Speed Cone technology comes from Black Diamond's expertise in avalanche probe design — a key component of Z-Poles' stiffness and fast deployment. Simply grab the grip and the first shaft section, and pull them away from each other. The pole will snap into place and lock. Each Speed Cone guides a shaft section into place, and stiffens the joint when the pole is locked. Protective, flexible tube ends cover the pole’s Kevlar® centre cord when folded.
