The Distance Carbon Z poles are our lightest Z-Poles, perfect for those who love to move quickly. Crafted from 100% carbon fiber, these poles have a three-section foldable design. Thanks to the Speed Cone technology from our avalanche probe expertise, they offer rapid deployment. We've reduced the pole diameter, making them lighter and less bulky while still maintaining high durability. The lightweight and supportive Distance strap is breathable and wicks away moisture. It's made from recycled materials. The ultralight EVA grip provides just the right comfort, and the non-scarring rubber Tech Tips with Wavelock are interchangeable, suitable for any terrain. These poles also feature optimized joint support for increased durability, removable low-profile baskets for versatility, and are compatible with Z-Pole Snow Baskets. Available for women in lengths of 100, 105, 110, and 115 cm. With an incredibly lightweight collapsible design (140 grams per pole at 120 cm), they're a top choice for lightweight, detail - oriented trekking. Technical specs include various collapsed lengths, usable lengths, and weights per pair depending on the pole length.
Using these poles is easy. First, unfold them using the quick - release mechanism provided by the Z - Pole Rapid Deployment. Adjust the poles to your preferred length. When you're walking, hold the poles by the EVA foam grip and let the supportive strap keep them in place. For different terrains, you can swap the Tech Tips - use the carbide tips on hard and rocky ground, and the rubber tips on softer surfaces. When you're done using the poles, fold them up and store them. Keep them in a dry place to prevent damage to the carbon fiber shafts. Avoid hitting the poles too hard against rocks or other hard objects to maintain their durability. If the strap gets dirty, you can hand - wash it with mild soap and let it air dry. Also, check the joints regularly to make sure they're in good condition.
