Stats Galvanized Steel Wind Stakes - 4 Pack

I don't own a trampoline but I do own a Monkey Hut and use it on a prehistoric dry lake bed. If you don't know what a Monkey Hut is I encourage you to Google it, or more so the Galaxy Hut variant since that's what mine is based off of.I chose these stakes instead of rebar because it's a smooth surface that could be placed parallel to the tarp, removing a tripping hazard. As such I placed one stake between the first two, and the last two ribs of the hut on each side. They went into the playa with ease, and once past that first inch or so grabbed onto the playa much better than I excepted. With a little over two inches of clearance from the ground to the arch of the stakes I wrapped the rope from the tarp around the stakes before pounding them into the ground. The rope started at one corner of the tarp on each side, then wrapped around the rebar (of the spine) and brought to the next garment before being pulled into one of these stakes. The rope then left the stake and went into the next garment. The method of moving the rope in and out of the garments was much like hand stitching fabric. It should be noted that the rope was also wrapped around the inner spine rebar along it's way, and that a stake was not used between the middle spines because of garment placement on the tarp. This wrap method brought the tarp almost completely to the ground on both sides.Over two weeks in use and the stakes did not work their way out of the ground. Even when the hut was the only thing around and full exposed to the wind. Removing the stakes was also easier than rebar with exception to one that was mostly playa cemented in due to pooling of water around it from the rain.It is because of the ease of use, and that they stood up to the playa that I'm recommending these for use to other burners as part of your securing plan. Although at this time I'm not recommending them as your primary grounding method.Update:The stakes made it though another year on the playa with no issues. In fact they kept my monkey hut together after pre-event winds snapped almost half of the PVC poles the make the structure of the monkey hut. I didn't notice the stakes lifting up from the force on the tarp during or after the wind event. However I did notice some slight bending after pulling them up, but not to the point of concern.Note:Originally purchased in 2014.

Great product!

Bought a four-pack for our 15 foot trampoline. I initially thought I would need to buy another pack, but just the four have done the trick. This summer we've had a number of thunderstorms, windstorms, and even a flood. It hasn't budged. GREAT purchase! My husband's only complaint is that it's a pain to mow the lawn under the trampoline since it doesn't move!

This is as described. It arrived in box with proper markings. It was labeled for sale at toys r us. Not quite sure how good they actually work or hold up yet. Their stakes not like they have moving parts.

Pounded them in at an angle, two per section angled opposite ways. I don't think the two trampolines I bought them for are going anywhere

Only lasted one summer. The stakes bend outward making them hard to pound in the ground. I would not purchase these again.

I hate them!!! They won't stay in the ground!

Exactly what we needed
