daiwa infinity flatback brolly

Hi Paul, been using a diawa tournament shield flatback for a good few seasons now, ( 60 inch ), very very light for its size, good strong pegging points were it touches the floor. If the infinity is as good, and i don't see why it wouldn't be, you won't be disappointed. :)
 
I've got one and they are OK. The first one had to be taken back to the shop after one of the spokes snapped during a v.strong wind, the shop replaced it immediately. The replacement has fared OK for a couple of seasons, although the cap has fallen off the top.

They are nice and lightweight, with plenty of coverage, but that does seem to come at the expense of durability. I've seen them for sale at around £40-£45 quid. At that price they are a good buy, but at £60? So so.

The fox specialist brolly looks a better bet imo.
