Quick Pitch Weathershade 20-Second 270° Awning – Legless Freestanding 4x4 Canopy (15m²)

15m² of Shade. Zero Poles. Under 20 Seconds. Every Time.

Stop fumbling with loose support poles, tangling guy ropes, or cheap twist-lock legs every time you pull over for a trail break. The Quick Pitch Weathershade 20-Second 270° Awning is the benchmark freestanding canopy in the global overlanding market — deploying a massive 15m² shade footprint that wraps completely around the side and rear of your vehicle in under 20 seconds, with your kitchen area completely clear of vertical poles.

This is the standard 2.5m model — the perfect fit for double-cab bakkie loadboxes, full-length roof racks, and canopy setups.

⚠️ Important: Select your deployment side — Left-Hand Side (QPSA-AW270-LHS) or Right-Hand Side (QPSA-AW270-RHS) — based on your vehicle orientation and preferred campsite setup.
