The bodies of 29 men are still entombed in the collapsed Pike River mine, more than a year after the tragic explosion and fire of 19 Novem­ber 2010. What do their deaths mean for workplace health and safety? Is there a future for coalmining in this era of climate change? How has the Coast changed from the centre of radicalism it represented in the early 20th century? What is the way forward for a region that has felt betrayed by a succession of political decisions and developments over several decades? Playwright and film director Paul Maunder lives in Blackball, and was one of the first emergency respondents to Pike River, within minutes of the first explosion. He kept a diary, and has since been talking to locals and reflect­ing on the big issues at stake.

It’s much more rigid than you might think.
The brackets did not fit the range of diameters that it said it would. Is pretty doofus when you lay it down backwards. It is however, more rigid than you might think. It works for me. I like it. Of course I can change things. I like the exterior fabric and I like the vinyl undercoating. I suspect it’s going to be waterproof as well. Now that I know, I’m not going to lay it down. I’m going to order a second one for my wifes quad, which is even narrower than the minimum they call out. 39.4”.

Great customer service
Stong headwind caused front straps to pop off and broke/bent frame. They replaced frame tubes with no hassle! Very impressed!

As shown
Nice kit. Simple to assemble, simply packed, good weight for the metal and the shade cloth. Actual width between attachment points is 44 inches. Tubing goes together with those push button things like on aluminum table legs. Priced commensurate with quality.

Very ridged!
I put this on my can am outlander 850 and it was not a hard job to install it. Shade cloth is nice and so far holding up good to what I put it through. Tubing has the push buttons so putting it all together is pretty easy. I had to make some clips myself to get the install right but it was no big deal. 5 stars!!
