In many cases, you will find that a trekking pole has a telescoping design to adjustable height, but this isn’t always the case. With the Black Diamond Distance, there isn’t the option to adjust the height and while this may be seen as a downside, there is an advantage to this.
When purchasing your trekking pole, there are a choice of four sizes, so, provided that you have taken your measurements correctly, you will be able to get a pole that is perfect for you. At full extension, the pole benefits from a click locking mechanism which provides impressive stability.
