## Description

The Sun Tek 68" Windcheater Umbrella protects you from harmful UV rays, while simultaneously keeping you cool in the sun and dry in the rain! This vented umbrella features a silver coated double canopy, and the Vortec Venting System prevents the umbrella from inverting in strong winds. The 68” SunTek Windcheater Umbrella is large enough to keep you and your gear dry in the rain. The fiberglass shaft and ribs provide extra safety in the event of a lightning storm. The oversized, ergonomic, rubber handle is comfortable for both right and left hand users. Dimensions: 42.5"L x 2.5"W x 2.5"H; 1.7 lbs.

Review: Does exactly what you'd expect. - Functions exactly as expected. It was only in the low 80's but because the sun wasn't beating on me, the airflow created while walking made me feel cooler. Takes a little getting used to, though. I'm only 6-0 tall and need to duck down a bit to get under the canopy. Not much of an issue at all. The other, and more important thing to get used to is that the umbrella will pitch back and forth a bit while pushing the cart and on bumpy terrain. This is NOT an issue with the product, rather, a result of physics. Got hit in the face 3 times during the first round using it, all while leaning forward during an uphill push. Finally learned to cant my head left or right during an uphill push or assist the umbrella shaft by grasping it. Got breezy in the afternoon and had to lower the canopy a few times to prevent the cart from moving or the umbrella from taking off. All in all, however, this umbrella is a bargain for less than $40 and does exactly what you expect, that is, keep the sun off of your body. I look forward to being cooler this summer while golfing. Lastly, I purchased the 68" umbrella which is actually 58" in diameter. The 68" measurement takes in the curvature of the canopy. It's the perfect size, IMO.
Review: You really need this, and Suntek is the best. - I bought this 2 years ago primarily as a sun shade for hiking in very hot/sunny and treeless areas of the western US. I'd owned a less well built golf umbrella, that, despite its weaknesses, served me pretty well for one season. This is far and away superior to my old one. First, the reflective mylar top is amazing at keeping you cooler underneath, and much better at blocking out the UV. Secondly, the wind gusset/venting system is phenomenal. My first non Suntek cheapy died in a moderate gust of wind. I limped through and finished the vacation with it, but it had broken pieces and less coverage. Thirdly, the fiberglass construction gives some peace of mind when there is lightning threatening. Fourthly, I cant believe the amazing price. After owning one for a couple of years -- still going strong and surviving many, many high wind gusts -- I can say the quality of materials, design, and workmanship are second to none. I would gladly pay much more if necessary to get something this well thought out. I use it as a trekking pole when not overhead, and it really doesn't weigh enough more than a carbon fiber pole for me to notice any difference. On the ground, augmented with a 15D silnylon rain poncho, I can quickly setup a 360 degree storm or overnight shelter in a pinch. Versatile, strong, light, inexpensive -- simply amazing. Way to go, Suntek! I'll be doing some hiking with my wife and my niece on different trips this summer, and I'm buying another for them to use, and so that I'll have a spare, just in case. Just get one of these. You will not be sorry!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best investment ever
*by W***N on January 26, 2011*

I'm fair skinned. I bought this SunTek Umbrella because more and more companies are using an ingredient in their sun care projucts that I'm highly allergic to. Homosalate. They've starting putting it even the so called sensitive and baby formulations of sunscreens and sunblocks that I used to be able to use with no problems. Also, I've been increasingly concerned about how many sunscreens are themselves considered carcinogenic! It's like I can't win. I don't want skin cancer, but I also don't want to slather myself in greasy creams that just increase my discomfort in the summer heat, that in many cases have made me start to break out in rashes. This umbrella is fantastic. Sturdy, and perfect for any kind of weather. Rain, snow, wind, sun, you name it. It's big enough to share, and it made this past summer so much more bearable for me. It reflects HEAT AWAY FROM YOU. Honest, you'll stay cooler and more comfortable when you use this. Cons? Well it's kind of huge. And while I may make one myself it would be very handy if they made the sleeve that it comes in with a strap so you could sling it over your shoulder when you've not using it. Some people may find it cumbersome because it's so big. For me this was a minor issue because anything that protects me from the sun that isn't some nasty lotion is a big deal.
