Using your Black Diamond Distance Carbon FLZ trekking poles is a breeze. First, adjust the length to your comfort using the FlickLock® Pro system. Just unlock it, set the length you need, and lock it back in place. When you're done with your hike, fold the poles up for easy storage and transport. Be careful not to over - tighten the FlickLock® Pro mechanism as it may damage the forged aluminum parts. Avoid using the poles on extremely hard surfaces without the appropriate tech tips. To keep your poles in great shape, clean them after each use. Use a mild soap and water to wipe down the shafts, grip, and straps. Make sure to dry them thoroughly before storing. Check the joints regularly for any signs of wear and tear, and if you notice any issues, contact the manufacturer for assistance.
