Theres a lot at stake!

As I was packing for another camp, I made sure that I had my tent pegs (or stakes).
This is an important piece of kit and probably one of the first that you decide to upgrade as a new camper who has just bought a tent and decided that they like the experience.
For some, the default pegs will be fine, at least until you experience some challenging terrain or weather. If and when you decide to upgrade, what do you look for?
In this microvlog, I explain the pros and cons of the standard pegs and suggest a cheap, much higher performance, option.
Taking the game to a higher level, I then look at titanium spikes, and two sizes of carbon fibre stakes.

That was really informative Phil, I was engrossed to see what stake came next. 👍👍

[@PhilWaud]

It's the typical campers issue, there's always a new bit of kit! Once you get into more extreme camping, you need stakes that will hold your tent down in all conditions!

Interesting video Phil. Always good to see what gear people are using with their wild camping. That drone channel wouldn't be Tech Drone Media at all? I found that channel to be very useful when I got my drone. He's a chap from Scandanavia I think.

Thats the one Gav, yes, loads of good stuff on his channel. Thanks for watching and commenting. Take care.

Never knew there was so many versions of the humble tent peg

[@PhilWaud]

I think I'm just addicted to buying kit! There's probably another half dozen types I could have included too

[@The_Versatile_Camper]

Very interesting to watch Phil, I like how you recorded it around your work bench 👍 I sometimes use the blue ones but mine are in a red I think Steve Hengists has jus got some too.

[@PhilWaud]

Yes he has, there's another two or three types I could have included but wanted to keep it short.
