270° wrap around awnings like the King Wing Awning are a fairly recent player when it comes to camp site shade and shelter. Despite being relatively new they’re already hugely popular thanks to the huge amount of area they offer while still being quick and easy to set up. Now there’s an even better option available – the King Wing Deluxe. The King Wing Deluxe takes everything that made the original King Wing a winner and takes it to a whole new level.

With 13m² of covered area, a King Wing Deluxe provides plenty of shade and shelter

The first and most important difference is that the King Wing Deluxe has a two-and-a-half metre square section that extends out from your vehicle – essentially the same as a 2.5×2.5m awning with the added benefit of the additional wrap around sections that fit around your vehicle or trailer and provide shade and shelter all the way around to the rear. The square section has an additional three support poles (compared to the original King Wing) that extend out and hold the awning tight making it even better in harsh weather conditions too! The other important note here is that even with the additional poles, the entire King Wing Deluxe packs up into itself, with no additional storage space or bags taken up. Just fold it up, gather all the material and strap / zip it up into the reinforced frame and bag that mount to your vehicle.

UPF50+ rated and waterproof the King Wing Deluxe will keep everyone happy in any weather

The King Wing Deluxe with its new square section provides a huge amount of shade and shelter and that’s exactly what you want in an awning! Overall you get 14m2 of protection from the elements. The material is a tough 170GSM rip-stop and it’s both waterproof and UPF50+ – that’s the highest available rating that will block out more than 98% of harmful UV rays. The huge amount of space combined with the sun and rain protection means you’ll keep everyone comfortable at camp whether you’re pulling over for a quick lunch, or setting up camp for a week. If you do need even more shelter, pair your King Wing Deluxe with an Adventure Kings Gazebo, or you could even add a side awning to the driver’s side of your vehicle for a fully enclosed shade setup.

Not just a pretty face… The King Wing Deluxe is built tough for tough conditions!

When selecting an awning for your camping rig you need to consider how strong it is and how well it’ll hold up to repeated use in tough conditions. You’ll be happy to know that the King Wing Deluxe is ready for just about anything! It comes with a heavy duty steel mounting kit that’s designed to suit most roof racks or crossbars and bolts directly to the tough integrated alloy frame. Each folding arm and the two tension poles are built with tough alloy as well, with a stainless steel main hinge that’s able to take plenty of punishment. The material is rip-stop and also features a reinforced corner to prevent damage after repeatedly being folded in and out. Even the transit bag/cover is a tough nylon reinforced PVC. All Adventure Kings Awnings essentially use the same design features, so you can rest assured that whatever you choose for your individual setup, you’ll be sorted!\

Wrapping completely around the left side of your vehicle or trailer, the King Wing Deluxe is ideal for quick trackside lunches, or setting up camp for a week

In Australia and New Zealand we obviously drive on the left hand side of the road and as such you’re most likely to pull over to the left – the King Wing Deluxe has been specially designed with that in mind, extending out from the passengers’ side of your vehicle or trailer before wrapping around to the back of your setup. By doing this, you can position your rig off the left hand side of the track, open up your awning and be shielded from passers-by on the safe side of your vehicle. The process of actually setting up the awning is quick and easy too, taking only a minute or two once you’ve got it down pat – so you’ll probably use it everywhere from camping to the jobsite, to sporting events and even in the backyard.

The King Wing Deluxe fits perfectly on the awning mounts on the MT1 Camper Trailer

If you’ve been eyeing off the brilliant new Adventure Kings MT1 camper trailer then you’ll be glad to know that the King Wing Deluxe suits it perfectly providing you with shade and shelter that encompasses an entire side of the trailer and extends over the back too, meaning you’re protected whether you’re at your camp kitchen or grabbing something from the rear storage drawer. Mounted on the height-adjustable MT1 awning mounts you get even more versatility on how you want to set up. King Wing Deluxe accessories will be launching soon too, so you can improve your camping experience even more – make sure you keep an eye out!

Adding camp lighting to your King Wing deluxe is an easy way to take your camp site to the next level

There is also a range of Adventure Kings gear that will work with a King Wing Deluxe right now – some of the best ways to make the most of your awning is to add some LED camplights whether it’s an LED Strip Light or a complete 5 Bar camp light kit that’s so modular you can illuminate different areas of your camp setup and turn them on and off individually. You’ll be pleased to know too, that the King Wing Deluxe is capable or working with any of the Adventure Kings roof top tent, by positioning their ladder over the driver’s side of your vehicle and allowing access.

If you’ve never had an awning before, or you’re looking to upgrade from a standard awning to something that offers more features and more shelter then the King Wing Deluxe is the one to look at! Tough and rugged, fast and simple to set up and offering a huge amount of shade and shelter there’s no denying it’s a winning choice for any setup whether you’ve in a 4WD, ute, van or for your trailer!
