Product Description

A minimalist pole, the Trail Back is nevertheless versatile, thanks to its usage of four-season, glove-friendly dual FlickLocks. The Trail Back is designed with a traditional round shape, rubber grip and nylon webbing strap. It also comes with a year-round Long Flex Tip and both low-profile, non-snagging trekkingTrekking poles add balance to difficult hikes and climbs while taking the pressure off your knees and incorporating your upper body into the workout. A versatile, minimalist, and unisex trekking pole, the Trail Back features an ultralight shaft and triple adjustability with Double FlickLock locking mechanisms to hold length settings with no slippage. All you have to do is flick the lock open, set the desired length, and flick it closed again to lock in your length.

With your comfort in mind, Black Diamond outfitted the narrow-diameter aluminum shaft of the Trail Back with ergonomic rubber grips and adjustable nylon wrist straps for support. The low-profile trekking baskets and long-flex tips give you maximum traction in snow and scree.

About Black Diamond
At Black Diamond, it's all about climbing and skiing. The company shares the same experiences that you do on rock, ice, and snow and these experiences push them to make the best gear possible for a worldwide family of climbers and skiers.

What began with a backyard anvil and a hammer has grown into a global company with offices on three continents that's not just for rock climbers, but one that stands for the spirit of the sports we live and the value of their place in society. Since 1957, Black Diamond's innovative gear designs have set the standards in numerous areas. This is partly the result of dedication, desire and diligence on the part of an incredible team of people--and the fact that they are all climbers and skiers themselves.
