Product description — Expedition Compactor Piton Purple

The Black Diamond Expedition Compactor Piton Purple ski poles are designed for splitboard tourers looking for compact, functional poles. Thanks to their folding Z-Pole architecture in 7075 aluminium and removable lower sections, they pack away easily once folded. The FlickLock Pro system allows quick length adjustment, even with gloves on. Two built-in bits, a PH3 and a 1.5 mm hex, make it possible to carry out repairs right in the field. The handle features an extended EVA foam grip for varying hand position, a scraper-style pommel for clearing snow, and a textured tip for adjusting heel lifts with ease. The wrist straps are attached with a lark's head knot and can be removed easily, depending on your preference. Size range 110-135 cm.

Specifications of the Black Diamond Expedition Compactor Piton Purple:

  • Folding poles with Z-Pole design for excellent compactness
  • Strong, lightweight 7075 aluminium tubes
  • FlickLock Pro adjustment systems
  • PH3 screwdriver and 1.5 mm hex bits built into the sections
  • Handle with an EVA foam grip extension
  • Straight-edged pommel that works as a scraper to remove snow built up on the skis
  • Textured rubber heel-lift tip on the handle
  • Wrist straps attached with a lark's head knot, easy to detach
  • Baskets: powder (100 mm)
  • Sizes: 110-135 cm
  • Folded length: 37 cm

Exceptions:

- For a single-section hiking pole, add about 5 cm to the values above to improve efficiency on climbs.

- For a telescopic pole, if you are taller than 1.85 m, choose a model extending up to 1.50 m to avoid reaching full extension.

By using this chart, you can choose the most efficient pole length for your body size and technique. This helps you enjoy your outings to the fullest, with no unpleasant surprises.
