Hi everyone. I'm looking for advise on the above. I want to add a porch to my pop up but unlike vango I can't find add ons for Quechua pop ups. Any ideas what I could use?
Thanks

The best thing to use is a tarp, easily erected and taken down if it gets too windy.

I find the best way to erect a tarp is to lay it flat then loosely peg out the four corners, then lift each end up with the poles. It's best not to stand the poles dead upright to start with keep the bottoms inboard a little to stop it collapsing.

It take a bit of fiddling to get it right but a practice at home where you are not making an exhibition of yourself and you'll soon get the hang of it.

Then just do the other guys/ from there you can add other poles etc to get the shape you want.

        Have a play
