Good enough to keep my tarp in place in very windy conditions!

I would not dream of keeping the tarp up at all times unless I use Deltas.

I think they are good enough to have a handful in your peg bag. Buy enough to use on your main guy lines.

It takes a little bit of practice in order to get them out of the ground, and I have got the hang of it now!

weeeeellllllll. brill, fantastic, wonderful, as alone camper I was always worried about wind, ahem, on a recent visit to Newquay it got so windy I was seriously giving thought to sleeping in the car, but my Deltas held me down, no problem. Going to take them everywhere and use on my main guys every time.

Well they do seem to keep the guy lines in place. However, I'd never had a problem with guy lines comnig lose when I used standard rock pegs on them and I would never have bothered with delta's if I hadn't won a set.

10 will do you for a Monty 6 on it's own for the main guys. Getting them out is dead easy - just use a peg extractor. Hook it into the corner and pull up and slightly backwards.
