Meat skewers any good?
Meat skewers any good?
Just drill a hole through them and whack the spike through it. It works really well and when I compared the results to the one that I bought (where the spike was screwed into it), mine are MUCH better (Strength, quality, thickness)

A 9" spike will hold a kite no problems.. On Sand, no.. But on Grass, fine.
The spikes I have been using so far are about 7" long and even when they are only 4" inch, they hold fine.
When you look at 'official' Kite Spikes, they are only 7-9" long and they are sold for just this job.
9" would hold my 7m no problems..I was going to get a Cork-Screw type for the beach.. But I saw one of them get ripped out the other day, so decided to stick with my curved "sand spikes"..

PS. Nope.. Never worked with anyone of that name.. Cheers
How about bricklayers line pins
Are these cheaper? What price are you paying?
Pieces of concrete rebar? Short sections of electrical conduit?
Probably more expensive than tent pegs!
Spanner?

This'll keep your kite down :)
No, but you can buy 9" short ones.
