Lightest 270 awning

[czukie]

I’ve been looking at the crosswing (I know it is not a 270) due it’s light weight and ease of deployment. I was curious what some other lightweight 270 awnings are. I’m mostly looking for the easiest awning I can deploy by myself that is still as lightweight as possible.

I think one of the lightest 270s is the Freespirit, Spec’d at 37#. It’s also fairly compact package when closed up and has wall options on all sides and square back. It’s rather easy to open with single rear pivot and a roomy enough bag to pack away easy.

The Crosswing is actually rather heavy for its shade Sq ft. I wanna say it’s about 36-40# or so but with one of the smallest shade footprints. It’s obviously quick, but not too stout with wind because of it’s design (opens like a projector screen).
