The ‘Flip’ Umbrella uniquely 'Flips' (reverse 'folds-in') the wet side of the Umbrella to keep the outside dry when it's closed, so it’s immediately dry when you put it in your bag or car. You won’t need to leave your ‘Flip in public places to drip-dry and risk losing it, it’s always dry! No more dripping wet umbrellas… 'Flip' Opens & Closes in Tight Spaces Every travel umbrella seeks to find the perfect balance between compact size and complete rain protection. You’ll have to decide for yourself how much space in your luggage you’re willing to sacrifice for a larger canopy. On the other hand, an umbrella that is too small to protect you and your belongings entirely is useless no matter how little space it takes up. HardinessOnce unravelled, the travel umbrella promises best-in-class rain coverage thanks to comprehensive and robust ribs and Teflon coverage.Even though it’s one of the most compact umbrellas out there, it will still withstand some strong winds and is a great option if you’re looking for a windproof umbrella.

When you’re on the road, the only weather guarantee you can count on is the fact that nobody can predict what’s coming. Forecasts are subject to change, and things can go from sunny to sour in a heartbeat.

These compact umbrellas are made lightweight to fit into more bags using light metals and sacrificing some canopy reach compared to an everyday parasol. Look for travel umbrellas to only weigh around one pound, while some of the best-in-class options are closer to half a pound. We’re about to give away some of the answers. Scroll slowly if you don’t want the whole thing spoiled. (The full solution is a bit further down.) What are the ambiguous words in today’s Connections? Let’s be honest, even if you’ve got the best travel bag out there, you still don’t want to risk it getting soaked wet if it’s got your expensive laptop and travel camera inside! Protection The green grouping is supposed to be the second-easiest. The theme for today’s green category is TYPES OF FRENCH FRIES and the words are: CURLY, SHOESTRING, WAFFLE, WEDGE. What are the blue words in today’s Connections?

Finally I think of SUNSCREEN, TOWEL, and UMBRELLA as things you could bring to the beach, and FLIP-FLOP goes nicely with them. That’s a hit. 🟨 I’m finally able to pin down the flip-flopping with YO-YO, WAVER, SEE-SAW, AND HEDGE. 🟦 (The fact that I got “one away” with both WAFFLE and FLIP-FLOP told me that either both of those words were right, or both were wrong. Otherwise I would have put WAFFLE in that grouping.) Choose your 'Flip' today... 'FLIP' IS NOT AVAILABLE IN STORES. 'Flip' really could be the ULTIMATE Umbrella!Travel umbrellas that promise to be windproof can stay in shape through winds up to 60 mph. If you’re experiencing winds any more robust than that, I highly suggest you get inside immediately! If you want to ensure your umbrella won’t blow inside-out in howling winds, consider a vented or two-layer fabric canopy. Also consider a brolly with fibreglass ribs, which flex with the wind rather than breaking. If you can afford it, look for a canopy with a polyester pongee fabric for increased strength and water resistance. The more common nylon canopy is fine for occasional showers, however. Flip' is unique. It even stands up to dry... 'Flip' really could be the ULTIMATE Umbrella! T here's no other Umbrella like it. Flip is not available on the High Street or in stores. No umbrella will protect you from an October in Costa Rica, and there is no one umbrella perfect for everyone. Only you can decide the best travel umbrella for your unique usage, but there is no risk involved in bringing along some extra rain protection. YO-YO, SEE-SAW, and FLIP-FLOP look tantalizingly similar. With WAVER, they can refer to changing one’s position–but that is one away. I swapped in WAFFLE for FLIP-FLOP (seeing MULE makes me think there must be a shoe grouping) but that is also one away. Two mistakes burned, and I haven’t gotten anything yet.

The umbrella handle should ideally be cushioned, or at least comfortable to hold in either your left or right hand, as you never know what else you’ll have to carry. And a good grip is essential for windier weather. A wooden curved handle, for instance, will not only look vintage but will offer a better grip during transportation when the umbrella is folded down. What features should I look out for?Larger than the average umbrella, but not as large as a golf umbrella, Certain Standard’s The Large Umbrella offers plenty of coverage in downpours. Seattle residents are very familiar with rain, and Seattle brand Certain Standard is about creating high-quality products that are as beautiful as they are functional. The 46-inch canopy comfortably covers you—and maybe a friend—while the lightweight frame easily glides open and closed. It’s built for storms light and heavy, offering key versatility in an umbrella you’re sure to reach for again and again. Golf umbrellas are designed to protect golfers and their equipment from the sun and rain. The extra width and depth allow for greater rain protection. They’re also big enough to share the canopy with another person. The G4Free Golf Umbrella is technically a golf umbrella, but it’s suitable for use by non-golfers, too. The 62-inch double canopy is vented to allow wind to blow through making the umbrella easier to handle, and the 210-thread count fabric is lightweight and water-resistant.
