The Challenger T2 3.5 x 2.6m Oblong is a free-arm parasol that offers a stylish and deluxe design, engineered with comfort in mind. Our T2 Parasols offer a double tilt system ensuring the full movement of the parasol without any movement of the base. You can tilt the parasol from side to side or backward and forward, and it can be held easily at any angle by simply locking it into place with a handy lever. The parasol can be moved around 360 degrees in a smooth and easy action, guaranteeing shade wherever you desire. The mechanism of the parasol is durable stainless steel and encased in a strong powder-coated aluminium housing, meaning no rust or corrosion. The durability and strength of the parasol is further enhanced with its robust powder-coated aluminium pole and the tension springs that keep the fabric taught, secure, and looking its best. The parasol is made from luxurious premium-class fabric, which is water-repellent and dirt-resistant protecting you from the elements and also the sun’s UV rays. The fabric has been solution dyed giving it the advantage of keeping its colour for a lot longer than most other parasols on the market. We suggest using a cover to protect your parasol while not in use to maintain its quality, please see the Aerocover recommended below.
