Ozz, Had a guy down at Palmdale that built his own supports under the awning fabric . He used plastic pipe from Lowes or Home Depot. It works a little like the metal stuff you pay the big money for. His awning was faceing east. He will not be down this year, he went to AZ. You could have went over and checked it out. I know we have four blades of grass that slows the wind down compared to what you get on the island. I keep my awning up and my door side faces the west. I am going to rig up the nylon strap thing to keep my large slide topper from flapping in the wind.
