DESCRIPTION

DURSTON Z-Flick Tent Pole - are a premium folding pole that allows bikepackers, canoeists, single trekking pole users, and others to enjoy the X-Mid and other trekking pole tents. By designing them specifically for this application, we've been able to create a folding pole that is truly the world's finest. That includes being the world's lightest adjustable pole at just 93g (3.3oz), the stiffest pole in its class, the only folding pole with an easier to use external adjuster, and the only folding pole compatible with almost every tent on the market.

12 mm / 0.47″ (upper sections)

ULTRALIGHT	These are the lightest adjustable poles on the market at just 93 grams (3.3 oz). We accomplish this with premium carbon fiber and larger diameter tubing which delivers more strength for the weight. There are slightly lighter non-adjustable poles but anything substantially lighter is using very weak and flexy tent pole tubing which is questionable in bad weather.
ADJUSTABLE	Adjustability is important for fine tuning the pitch of your tent, yet few folding poles are adjustable and the ones that are use either twist locks (harder to use, less reliable) or a pin system (harder to use, only adjusts in increments). External ‘flick’ style adjusters are quicker, continuously adjustable, lighter than a pin system, and the most reliable way to adjust a pole, which is why we are pleased to offer the first and only folding poles with an external adjuster.
STIFF	The Z-Flick poles are the stiffest poles in their class for reliable use in rough weather. We achieve this in three ways: (1) we use carbon tubing that is designed to be highly rigid (as opposed to tent pole tubing that is intended to flex), (2) we use precise tolerances between the sections to avoid slop, and (3) we use slightly larger diameter tubing that gives greater strength for the weight (12 mm vs 9.5 - 11 mm typically).
HIGH QUALITY	Durston goal is to build the highest quality outdoor gear, which is why we partnered with the same factory that builds premium carbon trekking poles and carbon avalanche probes for several leading brands. This quality is a clear contrast to folding poles built with generic aluminum or carbon tubing that offer lower performance and reliability.
COMPACT	A compact pole is important for bikepackers and many users, which is why the Z-Flick pole uses 5 sections to achieve a short 12″ packed length.
