Black Diamond Vapor Carbon 2 Pole

At Skimo Co we're pretty conscientious about things that are light, so the construction of the Vapor Carbon 2 Pole was a real head turner around here. Designed specifically for ski-mountaineering and backcountry skiers, these weight-conscious poles are something we can really get behind. If Bruce Lee taught us nothing else it is that lightweight can also be strong, an attribute shared by BD's tough and abrasion-resistant Vapor Carbon 2. Having an appreciation for the need to be flexible and adaptive when circumstances change, the Vapor Carbon 2 makes excellent use of its two-piece, 100% carbon fiber shaft design that has 35cm of adjustability. Extended for the approach, short for the steeps, ranging from 100cm-135cm this one size fits most pole will have you crushing terrain of all types and slope angles. In the backcountry, failure should not be an option, so to avoid potential gear failure BD utilizes its Flicklock Pro locks on the shaft, which are easy to use and remain securely in position, no matter how hard you pull, push, or propel. We all deserve to have a trusty companion by our side, why not have two with the Black Diamond Vapor Carbon 2 pole?
