Ostrich Junior - 270 Poleless Wing awning
Ostrich has released the New Ostrich Junior, Designed for Shorter mounting surfaces, it fits nicely on most Dual Cab utes with just 1500mm mount width requirements... Shown here on a Ford Ranger, Holden Colorado, Discovery 2 and Ranger rover sport - (Al vehicles with a short roof line) This awning weighs just 18kgs for its 9sqm coverage and 100% canvas canopy and Bag.
Great value at this price - Its about 15 seconds to put up and away too.. Easy to get back in the bag... .
The Awning comes with 1 Integrated Pole, and still features the Huge oversized Zippers present on its larger models.
The Ostrich Junior is much the same size as the Bush Company XT awning, in our opinion its 2.0m arm length is just enough for quick shade and shelter, or maybee enough to keep your swag dry.
While the team at Tough Touring all prefer the Full Size Ostrich - (2.7m Back plate and 2.5m on the arms) . The Ostrich Junior is a winner for those owning Dual Cabs that don't have long enough mounting positions... At Just 18 Kgs, Even those of you with heavily modified rock crawlers can run this awning without even knowing its there.Same Awesome Slide in quick release brackets as the origional full size unit, this is of same quality and uses same design that made the ostrich the most copied awning ever built.
100% Canvas and Aluminium Arms...
At $1350 this awning is exceptional Quality - The Canopy is Real Canvas. The Arms are Aluminium
The Ostrich Junior is usefull as fast shade and shelter when you can't justify the Mods that are required for a bigger unit.

TECH DETAIL - DUAL CABS - FULL SIZE 2.7m POLE LESS
To run a 2.5 - 2.7m Long Pole less awning you need a minimum mounting width of 1850mm - This minimum Width is required to stop the front half of the awnings back plate from wobbling around enough to shear or break the front mounts/Mounting bolts and or rack when driving on corregated raods... The damage when the front lets go is catastrophic to the awning, rack and vehicle.
