Black Diamond Distance FL (2012)

£100.00

The lightest poles on test by far and with a unique design. They flick out in the same way as an avalanche probe, held together by an internal cord. This means that they pack down much smaller than any others on test and yet they extend out to length at least as quickly as a regular pole. The length isn’t ...

Black Diamond Distance FL (2012)

£100.00

These poles are part of Black Diamond’s Z-Pole series, which are designed to be extremely versatile when hillwalking. On the top section of the pole they feature Black Diamond’s external Flip Lock device so there is no internal screw cam to adjust. This is then linked to the two sections of the pole by an internal rubber-coated cord, like a ...

Black Diamond Storm (2012)

£60.00

The Black Diamond Storm appears to provide everything its name suggests, as it offers a range of features to help you walk through a night-time storm safely. Firstly it is surprisingly small and compact at just 110g, so you’ll happily stash it in your rucksack ready for action. It punches out 100 lumens, which is a notch more than similar ...

Black Diamond Distance FL

£100.00

These are an extremely compact, lightweight set of poles and great for those who don’t necessarily want to use them all of the time. They fold down to the smallest compressed length of any pole tested, by a long way. But their light weight means they can be hard to place in the correct position, especially in areas with thick ...

Like most Black Diamond gear the Icon is designed to be a professional piece of kit. So it can be used with a rechargeable battery and its seven power settings provide output up to 100 lumens.

Black Diamond Trail Shock Compact

£90.00

The rubber grips are superbly contoured and the straps are luxurious, so these feel superb in the hand. Feature flip-lock length adjustment, rather than the usual twist-lock, and an anti-shock mechanism that uses air damping rather than a spring and is actually built into the grip. Superbly made from top-quality materials and certainly have no problem taking the knocks, but ...

Black Diamond Trail Compact 2010

£65.00

For many years Black Diamond poles have featured a FlipLock camming system to allow the poles to be adjusted in length and firmly locked in place. This system has been well-proven and does not appear to suffer from the common failings of the internal expanding cam design used by other brands. This single feature of the Black Diamond Trail Compact ...

Black Diamond Spot 2010

£43.00

A popular headtorch for many years, the Black Diamond Spot offers exceptionally lightweight performance. The battery case is pure genius as it opens just by tilting the head further than normally required. This makes fitting batteries in the dark easier than on any other headtorch I know of. Closure of the battery case is equally easy. One button provides six ...

Black Diamond Sprinter 2010

£90.00

The Black Diamond Sprinter weighs 100g; 1 Double Power LED; max output 68 lumens; dimmer switch is very easy to use; rear flashing red strobe; swivel head; rechargeable battery pack; max burn time 64 hours; oval beam for running. But tilting head not as secure as pricier designs; not able to fit batteries if power drops during use.

BLACK DIAMOND TRAIL SHOCK POLE

£70.00

Review: The Black Diamond has a wonderfully soft, grippy foam handle – one of the best tested – and the padded, easily adjustable straps make them among the most comfortable. The unique three-stage antishock system felt great, especially on rough ground; and the extended foam grip proved useful on rough ground, too. The sections are clamped together using a flicklock ...

Black Diamond Icon

£50.00

This is a beautifully crafted and wonderfully useful headtorch. The manufacturer claims it has an 80m beam, but what I liked was the variable power settings that add up to six lighting options plus flash. There is a setting here for almost every occasion. With a maximum burn time of 164 hours on a set of AA batteries, you also ...

Black Diamond Spot

£35.00

This is an exceptionally lightweight headtorch that is also very compact. The battery case is pure genius as it opens just by tilting the head further than normally required. One button provides six power levels plus flash, and these offer a good level of light for camping and walking. The head tilt is held in place with a moulded ratchet. ...

Black Diamond Spire

£80.00

The Black Diamond Spire trekking pole is unique in having elliptical pole shaft sections. This means you can handle the pole far more easily than a conventional round-shafted design. Furthermore, you get greater stiffness in the pole – which is useful when on steep descents where you are applying extra twist and stress on the poles as you negotiate rough ...
