I'm 6'3" and have metal work in my lower back, its not quite got the headroom of the XD but the footprint seems the same, get all the same kit in with the same amount of space. I really like the spreader block design, simple and goes up easy without any stress, find it much easier than the Frontier which i had for 4 years.

The storm pole are utter ****. Changed mine to the cygnet now trakker ones with the two thumbscrews. Tempted to get the jag ones but the spike on the end worries me a bit incase it pierces the material.

Can't beat the Fox camlock storm poles (if they're still available and without the auger points) with a pair of the Prologic quick release connectors. That would be what I'd try and get.

These are exactly what I replaced the trakker poles with, on mine.

Much much better than the chocolate trakker ones!

Still prefer thumbscrews. Ive got loads of fox storm poles in every size but never use them. Got the avid ones as well which are better than the fox and have the avid quick release adaptors on them and dont use them either. Always go to my cygnets with solar maglock quick release magnetic adaptors. Definitely getting some jag storm sticks though but I never use the front anyway so pretty pointless getting the jags as they will just sit in the garage with the rest of them but they are things of beauty.

. . .spoke to Carpscene in Brum this morning. They've got an RS Brolly set up in store but agreed they would be happy to set up both RS100 & RS150 in the carpark so I could get a handle on space / bedchairs / chairs etc prior to poss purchase . . .

Yes they are. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. 🤩
