User Review: Black Diamond Distance FL

Rating: rated 2 of 5 stars
Price Paid: $100

I busted mine a couple of inches from the tip after four day hikes. They're light and a great concept, and probably just fine for a casual hiker on easy trails, but if you put in the big miles on rocky, muddy trails (as in White Mountains and Adirondacks), these are just too wimpy to survive. 

By contrast, my Leki and Komperdell poles are still going strong after many years of use.
