The Trakker Tempest ‘V2’ Brolly is an exceptional fishing shelter.
Built on the outstanding features of the original, this upgraded model introduces anti-twist poles, amongst other features.
The purpose of these is to ensure the brolly stays rigid in all weather conditions.
Likewise, the outer material has been upgraded to a 10,000mm Hydrostatic Head (polyester) making it pretty much fully waterproof!
Also refreshed is the block design has also improved significantly.

Trakker Tempest V2 Brolly Review
Anglers that really want to maximise the internal space will learn that the external ribs really push out the brolly to its maximum potential.
This reveals a huge inner space that will comfortably fit wider bedchairs, such as the Trakker Levelite Oval Bed System.
Like its predecessor, the Tempest has an open front, along with a wide range of add-ons that can turn it into a complete bivvy system if desired.
Not only is the Tempest versatile, but it really is one of the best carp brollies to-date!

Trakker Tempest - Video Review
Below is a useful video from Trakker showcasing all the great features and add-ons that are available!
Additional Add-Ons
From utility fronts, skull caps, wraps, and a heavy duty groundsheet, there is also a choice of two styles of infill panel that can now be zipped to the front.
The overwrap really reduces condensation, whilst increasing heat retention to ensure anglers get a good night’s sleep (without waking up feeling damp or freezing cold!)
It’s also made from the same material as the Brolly – the upgraded 10000mm Hydrostatic Head 210D Polyester.
Furthermore, there are twin zipped doors to create the ever popular ‘letterbox style’ opening, whilst it packs down very compactly when space on your barrow can be at a premium.
Anglers that want to convert there brolly into more of a bivvy system, or want to use there shelter in the winter, will appreciate the Trakker Tempest Brolly V2 Wrap!
