I am 73 and have a heart problem. We bought a Kampa Air-pro to make life easier, which from an inflation point of view it certainly does. However, last year at Trout Beck, having driven 12 rock pegs into what seemed like concrete, I vowed never to put up another awning, ever again! After just one week away this year we're missing it already. Looking around the Dulverton site we noticed quite a few Fiamma sun-shades, which would at least give us a little more space and cover from sun/rain. Then came the epiphany, rather than selling the awning and buying a Fiamma, why don't we just put up the Kampa without walls? It would be lighter to carry and quicker/easier to erect, with only half the pegs to drive in. Anyone else doing this? Any tips on setting up/using such an arrangement? I also understand that the club doesn't charge for Fiamma type shades, so when does an awning become a sunshade? Your thoughts/ideas always welcome.
