A beach umbrella, sun tent, rain shelter, and more all in one, the Sport-Brella gives you instant portable protection from the elements regardless of your activity. The Sport-Brella looks somewhat like a traditional beach shelter/umbrella, with a large canopy that shields an entire family or team while they lounge on the beach or hang out on the soccer sidelines. The similarities end there, however, as the Sport-Brella sets up in just three seconds. As a result, you don't have to deal with finicky stakes or willowy tarps should a rainstorm roll in without notice. Just pop open the umbrella and you're set.
Once open, the Sport-Brella offers full cover protection, as the rugged umbrella structure includes side flaps that fold down to protect you from sideways rain and wind gusts. The umbrella is also sun-safe, with a UPF 50+ coating that protects users from more than 99.5 percent of UVA and UVB rays. And to keep you cool on sunny days, the Sport-Brella offers top wind vents and side zippered windows for cross-ventilation. The Sport-Brella--which also offers internal pockets for stakes, valuables, and gear--measures 8 feet wide when open and 54 by 4 by 4 inches (W x H x D) when folded. The unit comes with a convenient carrying bag plus tethers and ground stakes for extra stability.
