Quick Pitch Weathershade 270 Awning - MAXX 2M
Quick Pitch sits firmly at the top end of the global awning market.
It carries a higher price tag than Darche, Rhino-Rack, and most others for one simple reason — it’s engineered to an entirely different standard.
From materials and structural design through to long-term durability in real off-road conditions, this is not a comparable product. It is a genuine upgrade.
For detailed specifications and close-up imagery, refer to the standard-shape Weathershade 270 Awning.
Both versions share identical:
• Canvas
• Hardware
• Hinges
• Frame construction
• Mounting system
• Overall strength and durability
The only difference is the shape.
This variant is designed for those who prefer a 270 awning that runs the full length of the vehicle, extending coverage right toward the bull bar. It also suits shorter chassis layouts (2.0m vs 2.6m).
In every other respect, it is the same awning.
Coverage Clarification
It’s common to assume twin-hinge 270 awnings provide greater shade. In practice, this isn’t true. Both the standard single-hinge Weathershade 270 and this twin-hinge version deliver just over 12sqm of coverage — placing them ahead of most competing awnings and effectively equal to one another.
Choosing between the two comes down to layout preference:
• If you primarily operate at the rear of the vehicle, the standard shape typically provides better usable shade.
• If you prefer uninterrupted side coverage along the vehicle length, this version is often the better fit.
Want Even More Coverage?
For those seeking the largest 270-degree awning available globally, the Quick Pitch 270 MAXX stands alone — delivering an enormous 15sqm footprint.
In practical terms, however, the MAXX is simply too large for most 4WD setups.
It is best suited to larger platforms — trucks, expedition vehicles, and select canopy layouts where scale, mounting space, and weight capacity are appropriate. For typical ute and wagon-based builds, the standard Weathershade 270 variants offer the more balanced, usable solution.
