This Campros 8 tent is here because this is a tunnel tent of a particular type, it is freestanding. They have achieved this by adding one extra ridge pole which is under the fly and it crosses the 4 loop poles. When it is attached at the two ends of the tent, tension is created in the fabric and this is what makes the structure self-supporting. Improperly setting up your awning can result in damage to your tent and maybe your vehicle. And it can increase the chances of failure, which means your trip may get ruined.
