Korum Graphite Brolly Shelter

[Garry Howell]

Hi, I was wondering if any one has any experience of this, my current brolly is coming to the end of its natural life and I am looking to replace it, the Fox one looks good but the price seems a little steep! Any advice welcome.

Have a look at recent threads Garry, there has been one on this topic with lots of feedback.

I’ve got the graphite brolley and I can’t praise it highly enough.
The shelter I assume is near on the same product with sides and more pegging points.

Absolutely fantastic thing and wouldn’t be without mine. It goes everywhere with me.

Garry if you are talking about the fox specialist make sure you have a rod bag /quiver big enough to carry it……it doesn’t fit in many due to the rather large nose of the brolly……..doesn’t even fit the fox quiver !!!!

I have the fox specialist brolly, its far too chunky because of the mechanism etc. Gonna be moving it on soon.

Graphite shelter for me up in seconds and light as a feather but I dont think the storm poles came with it.

Korum Pentalite is a capable alternative if it's lightweight, and ease of transport etc.

I recently purchased the Korum graphite shelter and can say it is superb but it is not suitable for those venues where you are perched on a sloping bank. If the river bank is fairly level it is great

I have taken a punt on the Korum, everything is like rocking horse p** at the moment, you can't afford to look round. I will try to repair my old brolly for uneven ground!

The Korum will work fine on uneven ground, you just might not get the side bits pegged down.
Well that’s no big deal, just peg it out at the back and roll the sides up. Job done.
