Black Diamond Expedition 3 Pole
Engineered for versatility and reliability, the Black Diamond Expedition 3 ski poles are built for backcountry adventures where adaptability is key. Featuring a three-section aluminum design and dual FlickLock adjusters, these poles offer quick, secure length adjustments to suit varying terrain and conditions. When not in use, they pack down compactly, allowing them to be stowed out of the way in technical terrain. The extended EVA foam grips provide an infinite number of hand positions for enhanced comfort and control on steep climbs or long traverses with rolling terrain. The redesigned grip includes a straight-edge top for scraping ice and snow off your topsheet or skins, while a textured rubber "beak" allows for fast binding tweaks on the go. If you find yourself wrestling with the "wrist straps or no wrist straps" dilemma, you'll appreciate the girth-hitched straps, allowing them to be easily removed or put on to your preference. The Expedition 3 poles from Black Diamond are for those who want a reliable and proven platform that doesn't seek to reinvent the wheel.
