Features
With a highly adjustable three-section design, dual FlickLocks, and a comfortable extended foam grip, the Expedition 3 is whippet-equipped for big mountain missions.
The Black Diamond Expedition 3 is whippet-equipped for added security on steep terrain, and features dual FlickLocks for a full range of adjustability. The whippet attachment is removable for mellower missions. This pole is compact and packable when not in use, and the extended foam grip allows for a range of hand positions, depending on terrain. With FlickLock locking mechanisms, three aluminum sections, and a girth-hitched strap, the Expedition 3 is ideal for any backcountry traveler. Extended EVA foam grips, a straight-edge grip scraper, and a tactile rubber “beak” for quick binding adjustments on the skin track all contribute to the simple yet useful feature-set of the newly redesigned Expedition grips.

AI FAQs
AI generated FAQs about the Expedition 3 Whippet Pole
How do I know if the length is right for my height and skiing style?
These telescoping poles adjust from 100 to 140 cm with dual FlickLock locking mechanisms. That range lets you set the pole length for changing terrain and your preferred touring setup.
Are these poles comfortable to grip for hours on the mountain?
The poles use extended EVA foam grips for comfort and a range of hand positions. You can reposition your hands along the extended grip as terrain changes during a tour.
How much do these poles weigh, and will that matter by the end of a long day?
These poles weigh 842 g. You can factor that stated weight into the rest of your backcountry touring kit for long days out.
Will these poles help me on steep terrain?
The removable whippet attachment adds security on steep terrain. It is suited to steep, big-mountain backcountry travel, while you can remove the whippet for mellower missions.
Are the baskets the right size for the terrain I ski?
These poles include 100 mm (4 in) powder baskets. That basket specification is suited to powder-focused backcountry skiing and touring.
