 Nash have stopped making the Nomad which has to be one of the biggest mistakes in angling production.
The new range have nothing on the Nomad, if anyone knows Kevin, tell him to start making them again.

Nash seem to keep doing that.... the specialist rod range was very popular but discontinued too

I agree. The Barbel Elites are superb and I know of someone who preferred using his Elite to a Harrison he had. I have five and was offered good money for two of them at the weekend.
I'm not a true heavyweight at 14st odd but can say the Nash Nomad is a good, well designed, lightweight chair that has proved to be strong too. No problems whatsover after 2 years or so of ownership.

I've had a Fox lightweight for 10 years or so. Replaced the canvas a couple of years back (direct from Fox at a very reasonable price). Frame (lightweight alu) has been fine. Have a velcro attached shoulder strap to carry it. Very happy with it.

 <p>I recently got a JRC X-Lo. It's extremely light and easy to carry. It only has adjustable feet at the front but this does not seem to be a problem as there is a tube running across at the back.</p><p> It's even got 2 little handles which are perfect for resting your arm when quiver tipping and you want your hands over the rod ready to strike without causing the tip to bounce around.</p><p> My only concern is that it does not feel all that solid and I am a heavyweight, but so far so good.</p>

 I've got the Wychwood rover, which I rate very hightly. There's no adjustable feet, though it works a treat on sloping banks by simply having the back leg folded up. It weighs nothing at all and is very easily strapped to a rucksack. Personally, I think you need to get the chair that suits the situation. In roving sessions, time is normally of the essence, so the fact that this chair is set up and ready to go in twenty seconds counts in its favour. I've also done a twelve hour lake session on it no problem at all (though I have now also bought the JRC Stealth Relaxa for those longer days, simply because its easier to get up from - and to snooze in!)
