When it comes to climbing gear and ski equipment, the best designs come from climbers and skiers themselves, at least that’s what the folks at Black Diamond think. That’s why the Black Diamond crew is committed to getting outside, testing their designs, tweaking, reinventing, and revamping their gear so that it can offer you the best experience wherever and however you adventure. 

Starting with nothing but an anvil and hammer in a backyard, and growing to become one of the leaders in innovative designs for outdoor equipment, Black Diamond continues to be a name synonymous with good gear. From backcountry skis to lightweight bindings to climbing cams, their commitment to climbers, skiers, and hikers worldwide is evident through their inventive designs. 

But good gear wasn’t enough for the good people at BD. They have also committed to giving back to the outdoor community in numerous other ways like partnering with several North American avalanche centers and supporting advocacy groups like the Access Fund, the Conservation Alliance, Save Our Canyons, and many others to ensure that your favorite outdoor recreation areas will still be there for years to come. By putting their money to great designs and even better causes, Black Diamond continues their mission of encouraging a life well lived in the outdoors.
