Well it had to happen sooner or later, after reading about all the canopy horror stories my turn has finally come. I unwrapped the canopy this evening and was amazed by how soft and flexible it is, who ever cuts the canopies to shape at the front and rear does a perfect job as can be seen from photo's 2 and 3, the white stuff is talcum powder and the canopy is covered with the stuff, well at least I hope thats what it is.
The canopy all rolled up pretty much as delivered from the factory
