>>338909those are some shitty tent stakes, there are many other options from different manufacturers that are no-bendy. kelty, msr, many brands.
on that note, I had posted a picture of some snow stakes the other day and a bunch of retards accused me of being a shill and saying hurrdurr you don't even camp in snow shill, fag, etc.
well here's a picture of my tent pitched in 4 feet of snow in the rockies. FUCK Y'ALL
ps: the snow stakes worked great.
