The Black Diamond Expedition 2 Pro is a two-section touring pole designed for backcountry skiing but capable in all four seasons for mountain adventures. The Expedition 2 Pro features our redesigned FlickLock Pro, which is now lighter, stronger and easier to use, with a more durable, forged aluminum construction, allowing for fast and secure adjustments. Innovative SwitchRelease technology in the wrist strap with a lockable release adds a measure of safety in the event a pole gets caught in bushes or trees. The pole’s all-aluminum construction adds year-round durability, and the foam grip adds comfort while a dual density grip-top with a sticky rubber makes quick buckle and binding manipulation easy
