Back in the day, the Black Diamond Traverse Ski Poles were about the only game in town if you wanted an adjustable pole that actually stayed the length you set it at, and these days they're still a great choice. With a few less bells and whistles but the proven 16 / 14mm aluminum shafts and original FlickLock® adjustment system, these poles will still be with you when you're on your third or fourth pair of touring skis.
