The Falcon X-Treme & Falcon Pro 270 Awning by 23ZERO goes above and beyond to throw shade - literally.
Owed to an effortless one-person set-up and pack-down process, with instructions included, you can bask in outback tranquility sooner. Aluminium hardware and tough polycotton canvas has it lightweight, sleek, and strong, with Light Suppression Technology (LST) reducing any visible light when all windows are closed. From searing sun to relentless rain, your shady setup spans to a total of 11.5 square metres of awning coverage and up to 25 square metres, with optional walls.
With forward-facing rafters for front vehicle shade, its 270-degree design also allows shelter behind your vehicle, ideal for rear kitchen setups for those balmy BBQs out the back. In wet and windy weather, make use of the tie-off points creating valleys for water run-off, four integrated telescopic poles for added stability amid gusts and gales, and a fully enveloping, laminated polyester transit cover with a self-repairing coil zip. Plus, light up those late-night cuppa times owing to built-in LED white and amber lighting.
The 23ZERO Falcon X-Treme & Falcon Pro 270 Freestanding Awning is built for those round-the-back, outback escapes and backroad adventures!

I have to say, the note at the end about pushing the frame in is something I luckily learned by playing around with it, but it took me ages of thinking I wasn't folding the material up properly. THIS IS A GREAT TIP GUYS!!!

Haha, thanks for the kudos, I had to play around a little bit trying to work out why the zipper wouldn't do up before realising it was jutting out further than it needed to, easy adjustment to make to get the cover to zip up easily. ~ Ben

what's the difference between the falcon & the peregrine series?

Love my Falcon 270 Pro. The only feedback I would give is if you have a wagon make sure they (23Zero) throw in 2 extra poles for extra height at the front and rear where there are no integrated poles. Just helps to level it out on a wagon, but not always needed as it's free standing. The second is the lighting, the amber light is not orange enough, so bugs are still attracted to it. I also had some issues with the middle sagging on the wagon but found that if I fully tighten the front (not just leave both front and back loose and come back to tighten), then the back fully tight I get no sag at all...Sick awning!!

Thanks for the tips. There is never any harm is adding more poles to your setup, it makes for a more reliable structure. Glad you like your awning, it is an awesome looking bit of kit. ~ Ben

I'm not seeing the black straps to connect the awning on both ends. Just lots of orange rope keeping the awning secure once up.

The straps are there, see the video at 2:18 and 2:50. I don't recall any orange rope though. ~ Ben

Is this awning a true free-standing awning? It seems without the poles, the arms drooped a little, and was unstable.

@SnowysOutdoors 21 күн бұрын

Given the stability of a freestanding awning also relies on the strength of the way in which it is mounted, 23Zero err on the side of caution and recommend that poles and guy ropes always be used to ensure the stability of your waning and to prevent damage to awning or vehicle. ~ Ben

So the extreme wouldn't work with a 200 series with the lift up door?

@Portyhouse 24 күн бұрын

It would work fine. I have it on a wagon and as long as it's forward enough that when you lift the tailgate that it doesn't hit the rear cross bar of the awning you'll be fine. The material can touch the tailgate. I had 23zero check it out after I installed and it's fine, in fact they mention the material is fine to touch the tailgate. The only thing I did is raise the height of the brackets a couple of inches, still touches but is fine.

Shouldn't have the words freestanding if you highly recommend having the Poles set up all the time

It's a grey area, there can be a number of variable around how they can be used as freestanding such as the manner in which they are installed and the weather conditions they are used in. I can understand why manufacturers recommend this as there are a lot of warranty claims for awnings that are damaged in instances where common sense hasn't been applied. Everything has it's limits. ~ Ben
