SKLZ Sport Brella Review and Giveaway


I don't really have any outdoor sports equipment or gear. My family just hasn't spent that much time in the outdoors since my husband and I got married. We did just move with a minute next to a national park so we are excited for the summer. That is why I am so excited to get to review the SKLZ Sport Brella. My first outdoor gear! The Sport Brella is a great way to give you protection from the elements (rain, wind, sun ) while being able to enjoy the outdoors. The cool thing is that it has SPF 50+. That is such a bonus when you have kids! It can be used in a for so many different things. Going to the beach, camping ( this would be great to keep the bugs at bay), sporting events, anything you can think of! The Sport Brella can also be used in a standing up position. I also enjoy the convienient carrying case that you can carry on your shoulder. It makes it really convenient for walking to your destination without having to drag heavy equipment. I will be going "camping" this weekend ( we will stay in a cabin) and am really looking forward to using my Sport Brella.



You can view the Sport Brella in action in the video below to get a better idea of how it works.

    I would love to win this!! I need something easily portable for going to parks with my kids to provide some shade! I also checked out the golf items and the "slice eliminator" looks interesting as well.
