I had these bought for me sometime ago, I had been using non genuine straps before with no issues whatsoever. However today I decided to use the Fiamma ones, still brand new in the box, very easy to apply, put one side on and tensioned up went to the other side tensioned that one up and it snapped clean off at the Adjusting buckle, the metal hook flying off hitting my motorhome side garage door and left me with a couple of lovely little dents on my door. God knows how much that will cost to repair…..Thank you Fiamma.😡😡
Yes exact same happened to me first time out of the box. 🤬🤬🤬🤬
Hi, just bought a set of these straps, thanks for the video, very helpful. Cheers Dave👍😃
Hi dave , thanks for watching the video , they’re a good investment I think , it’s just that little bit of extra security & peace of mind isn’t it , especially if your away from the van for a any given time walking dog or wherever and that ol english wind picks up , you won’t panic & have to dash quick back to wind awning in 😂 👍
Great bit of kit. It’s good just in case if those sudden gusts. Great common sense review Mike, nice one. 👍🏻😄 Trev
Thanks trev yes definitely a handy bit of kit 👍 thanks for comment 😀

Excellent demo, thanks.
thanks & thanks for watching the video
Top tip got exactly the same set up 👍
Motorhome Fun thanks for comment I swear by them so handy 👍
The Frenchies Motorhome channel same here alway use on a still day as well I’ve seen canopies go over tops of Motorhome’s
My biggest fear ! lol
The Frenchies Motorhome channel just bought a kampa motor pro air 260 recently so will be using that more in the future takes 15 minutes to put up and peg out.
That’s exactly what I want ! Identical one ! I assume you’ll put some pics on Instagram once it’s up when your away next ? I’d like to see it 👍
Have these in bright yellow.... doesn't stop the pitch cutters falling over them....
yeah i’ve noticed 😡
Hello love your video clips, can you tell me if you have a anti flap kit on your fiamma awning? I have been looking to buy one and cant seem to find one that fits where did you get yours from?
Regards Gail from Australia
Hi Gail I’ve just looked on eBay Australia and found a pair they are called Fiamma tie down kit and are on there for $59 , thanks for watching the videos
All the best
Mike
any links to purchasing this looks awesome bit of kit cheers.i persume it fits f80s?
yes sorry i’ll put a link in there now i thought i had done it
Thanks for video. It works also with Thule ?
i don’t know but thule make these straps also , specifically for thule.
thank you for watching the video
Yes ours got ripped off and landed 20ft away on the next pitch which luckily was empty
Put your awning away when its windy. Easy.
Do they work if you have sides and front canopy fitted?
if you have an extra rail slot or somewhere else you can attach them too like at each end of the awning somewhere , then yes 👍
Hi mate, was that awning fully extended?
Hi , Not fully no I never had the room if I remember correctly but it would have still had the same result , fully extended then half a turn back is the right way , then I’ll add the tie down kit. Thanks for watching
You dont have the awning up properly. You need to wind that back a little to put tension in the canvas. Its great with the straps though, much safer, though those ropes are a bit ugly to look at.
Our legs got pulled out of the ground in Spain so be careful...
Yes I’ve heard of gusts doing that , I bet that scared the life out of you Id dread to imagine a canopy being ripped off the van , thanks for watching the video 👍
