I have just got round to posting this. We went camping twice last year and used our newly purchased Canopy and were wondering if we were getting the pitching wrong. The guys seem to have to stretch over the canvas of the tent which isn't ideal, and when it was windy (which it was on a couple of hairy nights) it flapped around like a loose spinnaker. It was going anywhere because we had the trusty ground anchors, but it was quite disconcerting none the less. I am also going to try to host some photos to demostrate what I mean. If some of you with experience also of the canopy could confirm that this is normal that would be a big help for this year.

It just doesn't seem the best design if we have got it right...

If you can't see the pics, they are under tent reviews and 'Outwell Vermont Side Extension'.
