Thread: Roof rack awning recommendations

If you want a Awning that will last a very long time and is simple to set up then
the Hannibal one would be first off the block.

No messing about with silly, flimsy legs or guide ropes, Hannibal Awning are fully self supporting.

Long before we used to sell them, I purchased one and I have never looked back Quality product with Australian manufactured Dynaprof Canvas.

If you look through this section of the forum, you'll find a number of threads on the subject.

We went this way, Tough toys 2.5mtr x 3 mtr. Comes with strip l.e.d light mounted in support bracket / bag .
Has flexible nuckles on support bars.
Easy enough to set/ pack up.
The price was right.

Fitted a foxwing over a year ago, awesome coverage and very waterproof. Only issue is putting them up in he wind, you just need two people. I guess that's the penalty for such a big area. The newer version seem to have fixed this issue by fitting flexible knuckle joints.

I would add to the foxwing comments that, notwithstanding it is advertised as stable in winds without guy ropes, do resist the temptation to test it. We set up the foxwing and a gust of wind inverted it breaking the knuckles on the pivot. Thus if there is any risk of wind take the time to run guy lines.

Otherwise it is a great product and offers a massive amount of coverage around the car.

I have the Rapid Wing by Supapeg, great quality all Australian made.
