BD x norda Distance Carbon Z FKT Running Poles
Due to transport delays, this item hasn't arrived in-store yet. ETA first week of september 2026, quantities are extremely limited.
BD's top-of-the-lineup running pole. The FKT takes the Distance Carbon Z and strips it further: lighter shaft, a magnetic glove strap system that clips in and releases with one button press, and a foam grip extension for hand positioning on technical descents. At 157g for the pair in 120cm, the swing weight is low enough that you stop noticing the poles are there, which is the whole point.
The Z-fold system collapses in one motion using speed cone technology. The magnetic strap is the headline feature: glove straps clip into the pole for quick deployment going into a steep climb and release just as fast when you need your hands free.
Fixed length, no adjustment. If you know your pole size and you're buying these for racing or fast mountain days, that's the right call: no adjustment mechanism means less hardware, less weight, more stiffness. If you want adjustability for variable terrain or multi-user use, the standard Distance Carbon FLZ is the better fit.
