Compared to large 13 foot umbrellas offered by Frankford Umbrellas,  Tilt the Pole® offers more shade coverage using a smaller 9 foot umbrella for 1/2 the cost.

Since the umbrella extends outward to create shade, this smaller canopy provides the same shade as a much larger umbrella - at less than 1/2 the cost of a Giant umbrella.  Tilt the Pole® moves the entire umbrella pole allowing you to track the sun and create shade all day.  

Advantages of Tilt the Pole® :

• sun-tracking- allows the user to adjust to create shade all day
• easy to remove- protect against damaging winds
• light weight - easy to move and maintain
• takes up much less space
• standard UPS/FEDEX shipping (the Giant umbrella ships via freight- $$$$)
• many lower cost base options (with 1.5" umbrella pole)
• use with most patio umbrella tables (with 1.5" hole)
• tested against 50 mph winds
• 1/2 the cost compared Giant umbrellas
• ships within 1 week

Tested against 50+ mph winds, Tilt the Pole® offers more shade than a Giant 13 foot market umbrella.

Never move your chair!  Just rotate and tilt the pole in the direction of the sun.  Track the sun and create shade all day long.  Beach, pool, patio - http://resort-umbrella-solutions.com/good-shade.php.

See images showing how the umbrella is extended to provide shade at 9:00 a.m. and then at 4:00 p.m.  Track the sun and shade a large area by tilting the umbrella pole.

As a comparison look at the pictures below.  A Giant umbrella does not solve these shade problems.  Why would you spend more money to have a heavy, immovable (semi-permanent) umbrella?
