The black diamond Alpine Cork trekking poles are bomber. Super sturdy and solid under weight. Also relatively light weight for how robust their construction is. These are the industry standard.

Great sticks

Pros:
  • Pack Down Well
  • durable
  • Light & awesome design
Cons:
  • None
Would recommend: Yes

comfortable hiking sticks

by LR, Verified Owner from IL, United States Written on February 8, 2023
The cork handles on these sticks make them easy to hold and very comfortable to hike with. No slipping and your hands stay dry while hiking. You do need to buy the rubber caps because they did not come with this pair.
Pros:
  • COMFORT
Cons:
  • None
Would recommend: Yes

Ultra strong

by Gary, Verified Owner from OR, United States Written on February 1, 2023
The alpine carbon cork is really really strong, great for four season trekking, Always reliable. And the weight is reasonably light for its strength. The cons is that the lower shaft cannot be locked well in the shortest lenght, you have to pull it out a bit then lock it.
Pros:
  • strong , light
Cons:
  • the lower shaft cannot be locked well in the shortest lenght
Best Used for:
  • four season trekking,

Great texture

by U, Verified Owner from DE, United States Written on March 17, 2020
I like the texture of tho cork and the flexibility of the poles, easily change the length of the pole when climbing up or down, compared with Z series. However it’s much longer than the Z series by the way.
