What customers are saying

★ 4.6 · 266 reviews

Reviewers praise the Alpine Carbon Cork for its light yet strong carbon shafts, comfortable cork grips that stay secure when sweaty, and knee support on steep descents, with some logging thousands of miles, including full PCT thru-hikes. The most common critique is the FlickLock: it needs a small hex key to adjust and can slip if not tightened, and the poles won't lock when fully collapsed. Some also note they don't pack short enough for carry-on luggage and that snow baskets are sold separately.

Reviews

Like them quite a bit

"Not the absolute lightest poles, but feel very sturdy. Comfortable hand grips and straps. The only odd things I have found are that the lower section has some movement back and forth when closed, and the upper section cannot be locked if fully retracted. There's a sweet spot on the latter, subtly marked. Used to great effect backpacking across the Sierras and up the west approach of Mt. Whitney this summer. Appreciate that the tips are replaceable after so much time spent on rock!"

— Paul T. (5/5)

Great when not broken

"These were a replacement for another pair of black diamond poles that also broke. Both were being used by my wife when they broke. Moderate stress cracked and broke the carbon fiber. Her last pair of REI poles lasted years and are still going strong. It would also be nice if the Allen wrench used for adjustment was integrated into the pole design, like previous models."

Light, Sturdy, and Essential in the Backcountry

"I just took the Alpine Carbon Cork Trekking Poles on a long backpacking trip through the Trinity Alps—over 25 miles with more than 7,000 feet of elevation gain. They were sturdy, lightweight, and exceptionally well built, giving me confidence on steep climbs, rough trail, and long descents. By the end of the trip, I honestly couldn’t imagine having done the trek without them. Excellent poles for demanding backcountry travel."

— Michael K. (5/5)

Burly AF

"These are simply essential in the Grand Canyon back country. Where others will snap under stress, these hold their own. Expensive but fully worth it 👌"

— Colin L. (5/5)

Superb all-around trekking and trail running poles

"I just finished a 9-day hut-to-hut hike in the Alps and these poles performed flawlessly through every type of terrain. Easy to adjust, super comfortable grips even on long, hot days, rugged, sturdy and light enough for trail running. Note: Some airlines do not allow trekking poles in carry-on luggage. I bought these at a place that sells confiscated carry-on items -- for $30! -- and they looked brand new! Huge, huge improvement over the brand X poles I bought off Amazon."

— Grambo (5/5)

Amazing first run

"Did a quick 1000m summit circuit recently to test them out before a proper expedition. Love the grips, the feel, the light weight. the adjustment ferrules are my favourite but with extra pressure they don't hold their position. Not sure if i can adjust this myself but ill try."

— Jay R. (4/5)

Great poles with a few caveats

"I love the poles, the cork grips, the rigidity/sturdiness of the carbon. . . all great. I am not in love with the flick lock adjustment. More specifically the need for a special hex/allen tool to adjust them should they start to slip. The Pursuit poles come with that hex bit stored in one of the pole sections, the Alpine Carbon do not. Why drop the ball on a more expensive set of poles that require an extra tool to be carried "just in case?" From what I can gather online is that older Alpine Carbon poles came with that small bit stowed in a pole section. The new ones just come with an "L" shaped Allen wrench taped to the instruction booklet. My older set of Black Diamond Trail Pro poles have flick locks that are adjusted with a small slotted screwdriver. Even better, as I always have a small Swiss army knife in my pack that has a small flat screwdriver blade. The hex/allen screw adjustment seems like a step backward. One more thing to note: Due to the taper of the lower section of the Alpine Carbon poles, when fully collapsed for stowing, the flick lock will not lock the lower section in place and allows it to slide in and out a couple inches. Not a huge deal to me and the way I use them, but worth noting."

Durable Workhorse

"I’ve used these poles for a complete thru-hike of the PCT, and they’re still the poles I grab for every backpacking trip. They’ve held up incredibly well and have proven themselves to be both lightweight and durable. They even survived a deer attack in Northern California. I woke up in the middle of the night to a buck snacking on my pole strap. By morning, I found the pole about 20 yards from my tent. After a quick scrub in the river, it was good as new minus a mangled strap! If I could rate these higher than 5 stars, I absolutely would. These poles have been through thousands of miles with me and I wouldn't be surprised if they last a few thousand more."

— Anthony S. (5/5)

Quality for any adventure

"I recently bought these poles for my hike up Mt. Whitney. I lost parts during the training phase and the customer service I received was top notch. This brand made a lifetime customer out of me with their quality of gear, and customer service."
