Product Details

The Black Diamond Traverse ski pole is a classic, all-aluminum touring pole designed for backcountry skiing—weekday dawn patrols, all-day couloir missions, and deep days lapping the trees. It’s built as a daily driver, with durable aluminum construction meant to take repeated use year after year.

On the hill, the Traverse keeps adjustments quick and secure with FlickLock, and the redesigned grip improves ergonomics for long days. Powder baskets help keep you riding on softer snow, and the indexed ferrule is compatible with 3/4 baskets when you want to switch setups.
