Made with a strong yet lightweight box tube alloy rafter system, a durable steel and alloy swivel hinge system and Darche’s famous proofed polycotton ripstop canvas – you’ll get up to 20.5m2 of dependable shelter with this awning.
In this video, our gear expert Ben gives us a full demonstration on how to set up and pack away the Darche Eclipse 270° Awning. He also gives us some excellent tips along the way, shows you how to secure and tension it with the strap, tells you why you shouldn’t leave it freestanding, demos how to set the poles and guy ropes up and how to distinguish the rain gutters from the guy points.
And when it comes to packing it down – he shows us all how to fold, roll and fold it again to secure it neatly back in the bag – so check it out above for all the details!
