      ✨ Key Features & Benefits:

      • Superior Durability:
        • Crafted from heavy-duty 420D UV-stabilized Ripstop Polyester, engineered to resist tearing, fading, and deterioration from prolonged exposure to harsh weather elements, including intense sun, strong winds, rain, and snow.

      • Accurate Wind Indication:
        • The meticulously engineered conical taper and balanced weighting allow the wind sock to respond to even light breezes (as low as 3 knots/5 km/h), providing immediate and accurate direction and an approximate indication of wind speed based on its angle of inflation.
      • Reinforced Construction:
        • A robust, reinforced mouth opening with heavy-duty brass grommets prevents wear and ensures the wind sock maintains its shape for optimal performance and extended lifespan.
      • Easy & Secure Installation:
