Care
Before and af ter each use, check to see that the adjustment mechanisms open and close smoothly and are tensioned properly.
- Make sure nothing is deformed or broken.
- Store the FlickLock mechanisms for long periods with the tension released.
- Never put oil or silicone on the pole shafts — this could cause the joints to slip during use.
- Should the poles get wet during use, lengthen lower shafts and allow them to dry completely before storage.
- If the FlickLock mechanisms become hard to open or close, apply a drop of oil on the lever pin and another underneath the lever where it rotates on the housing.
Questions on Black Diamond Trail Back Poles (Pair)
-
From Greg on 3/09/11
- What is the difference between this and the contour eliptic?
- Hi Greg, The Contour Elliptic pole has Elliptic shaped pole sections for ergonomic comfort and strength (you can see they taper towards the basket) as well as a 15 degree corrective hand grip angle. The Contour Elliptic will be a better pole for multiple terrains. Thanks
