Thanks for solving this mystery. I wish I had researched this prior to buying as it’s not a great process if you’re out trekking and want to change tips😢. I guess I’ll stick with the rubber tips.

Thank you! The second set of pliers did the trick for me.

FYI. We just picked up Cascade Mountain Tech carbon trekking poles from Costco for $29.99. Great quality. We have been following you for several years. Just pulled the trigger on an order for a PW Plateau FL. Thanks for all you shared.

I had surgery on my back last week and the doctor prescribed walking from the very next day.
Since I live in the city, I thought that for walking down the streets it would be a good idea to change the tips of my Black Diamond trekking poles for this rubber tips.
So I bought them on Saturday, I used them on Sunday for the first time and by Thursday (that is, in less than 10 kilometers) the tips were totally destroyed, showing the inner metal with no trace of rubber on them.
I feel cheated and I don't think that Black Diamond should keep on selling this product. Some of us trust our safety up in the mountain on Black Diamond equipment and would like to believe that their standards of quality are way higher than those with the tips.

Thank you for the great video! It helped me a lot! Question: do you know if BD sells extra-long tips? Best regards from Sweden

Is it okay to take these poles on an airplane? Should I remove the tip before doing so?
