I have the Daiwa Mission Brolly that comes with the poles and a groundsheet for about 50 rips. Same principle as the Fox. An over-rap is also available at about 50 rips. Great for one nighters.
I happened to have a centre pole, which it doesn't come with, off a 50 inch brolly that has the same thread as the Daiwa brolly. So I can use it in the traditional brolly manner if I want for day sessions.
Centre pole from different brolly makes come with many different threads BTW. I was just lucky I think that I had one with the same thread.
