23Zero Bushman Straight-Pull Vehicle Awning 78x98
23Zero Bushman Straight-Pull Vehicle Awning 78x98
The 23Zero Bushman 78x98 is a straight-pull vehicle awning that throws roughly 53 sq ft of shade off the side or rear of your rig. The canopy reaches 98 inches out along a 78-inch mounting span, and the whole thing rolls up into a rivet-free, E-coated extruded aluminum frame for travel. Canvas is 290gsm polycotton tear-check with a 1500mm polyurethane coating, so it sheds rain and resists UV, mold, and abrasion.
The headline feature is Light Suppression Technology (LST) — a dark coating on the underside of the canopy that diffuses UV and drops the temperature of the shade underneath, not just the brightness. Flexible polyamide hinges take the stress off the rafters and leg poles so the frame flexes instead of fatiguing. The canopy deploys in under a minute; a second set of hands speeds up the bracket install and any wall add-ons.
Mounts left, right, or rear to a roof rack or crossbars using the three included L-brackets and M6 hardware. Up to five sail-rope tracks run the length of the frame, so extension walls, an awning room, LED strips, and gear pockets clip on without touching the canopy. The package includes the awning, mounting kit, and a 600gsm laminated PVC transit cover with a #10 self-repairing coil zip. Backed by a 2-year warranty. The full walled awning room is sold separately and uses the same sail tracks.

Overview
The 23Zero Bushman 78x98 is a straight-pull awning that deploys ~53 sq ft of LST-coated shade off the left, right, or rear of a roof-racked vehicle. Built around a rivet-free E-coated aluminum frame with flexible polyamide hinges.
Key features
- Light Suppression Technology (LST) — dark underside coating diffuses UV and keeps the shade measurably cooler, not just dimmer.
- 290gsm polycotton tear-check canvas with a 1500mm PU coating — sheds rain, resists UV, mold, and abrasion.
- Rivet-free E-coated extruded aluminum frame with flexible polyamide hinges that relieve stress on the rafters and leg poles.
- Up to 5 sail-rope tracks for extension walls, awning room, LED strips, and gear pockets — accessories never load the canopy.
- 600gsm laminated PVC transit cover with a #10 self-repairing coil zip for travel.
Use cases
Run it as a side shade wall over the camp kitchen for midday sun, or rear-mount it so you can open a galley/tailgate setup fully under cover. The same sail tracks let it grow into a walled awning room when you want an enclosed space.

How much shade does it give and how far does it stick out?
It covers roughly 53 sq ft. The canopy reaches about 98 inches out from the vehicle along a 78-inch mounting span, enough to shade a camp kitchen or a tailgate work area.
What does it mount to, and can I run it off the back?
It mounts to a roof rack or crossbars on the left, right, or rear using the three included L-brackets and M6 hardware. Rear-mounting is a common setup so you can open a galley or tailgate fully under cover.
Can one person set it up?
The canopy deploys in under a minute on your own. Mounting the brackets and adding wall kits or an awning room goes faster with a second set of hands.
Is it waterproof, and how does it handle wind?
The 290gsm polycotton canvas has a 1500mm PU coating that sheds rain. Like any awning with this much sail area, stake the included guy lines whenever the wind picks up.
How do I keep the canvas from mildewing?
Let the canopy dry fully before you repack it into the 600gsm PVC transit cover. Polycotton can mildew if it's rolled up wet, so air it out after a rainy trip.
