From Moosejaw:
"Free Shipping. Black Diamond Spire Compact Trekking Pole (Spring 2008) The new Elliptic Technology Spire by Black Diamond has the highest fore/aft stiffness on the market, providing unrelenting support on technical climbs and descents. Its elliptic shaft shape is non-rotating, offering immediate engagement with the Auto Lock Binary system, and the Elliptic FlickLock offers simple mid-stride adjustments. Additional features include a 15 corrective angle, a new streamlined dual-density top knob, a non-slip foam grip with lower extension, 360 padded webbing, Short Flex Tips and low-profile non-snagging trekking baskets. The Compact is a shorter 125 cm version of the Spire with more compactability and reduced grip size for smaller hands.Features:Length (Collapsed): 64 cm (25 in)Length (Usable range): 94 cm-125 cm (37 in-49 in)Weight: 536 g (1 lb 3 oz)"

From EMS:
"The elliptically-shaped Black Diamond Spire Trekking Poles deliver more effiicent poling and a lockdown system that reduces the likelihood of pole rotation. Get unrelenting support on technical climbs and descents. The Compact is a shorter 49-inch version for folks who are under 5 feet 8 inches tall. Why carry extra weight? Elliptically-shaped shafts are non-rotating, offering almost two times the fore and aft stiffness of any pole available. 3-section poles with two locking mechanisms: a FlickLock on the upper shaft and binary lock on the lower shaft. Elliptic FlickLock adjustment clamps are even easier to flick open and clamp close with "Zero-Slip" under pressure. AutoLock Binary system immediately engages with elliptic shafts; just pull the lower shaft until the red pins engage, automatically locking into place. 15 degree corrective angles on hand grips. Non-slip foam grips with extensions. Dual-density material on top of knobs. Short Flex Tips; low profile trekking baskets."
