The awning itself retracts into a pvc polyester cover and is then secured into a very tough nylon bag which is also pvc reinforced.
Foxwing awning review.
Our mission at 4x4 awnings is to tell you what you need to know when you want an awning and we take it seriously.
Expletives flowed freely as another gust of wind throttled the canvas throwing a support leg into the back of my head while i tried to wrestle the awning s unwieldy form into submission.

Our review on the rooftop foxwing eco 2 1 awning direct link to site specs.
Hi all this video with steve vk2ud was shot on our last outing at bylong 4x4 park to show the the oztent rhino foxwing awning and the 30 second awning si.
Now setting it up.
This awning has been rated to upf of 50 meaning its perfect for those sunny days at the beach or in the bush.
The now bird s nest of guylines stakes and metal poles of death had me surrounded and the prospects of surviving the ordeal looked grim.
These are perfect for those that want plenty of coverage.
This is where things get interesting.
Batwing or foxwing awnings are side mounted awnings and are massive coming out 270 degrees covering both the side and the rear.
The awning itself is ripstop polycotton canvas with a uv and mould resistant coating and a water protection rating of 1500mm so it isn t going to leak no matter what lands on it.
The awning is rather long around 2000 mm long so probably not the best car awning but should fit just about any truck and mid size suv.
Like its competitors this awning has a number of accessories including awnings walls and integrated storage bag for pegs.
This awning does not need guide ropes due to the integrated peg holes in the bottom of the support poles.
33pounds 2000mm in length waterproof uv resistant easy one person set up our awning arrived on may 10th just in time for our overland trip through western south dakota for outdoorx4 magazine.
They cost far more than a side or rear mounted awning but are brilliant for large families.
