hi we used our wind break when we went camping last year, we bought a vango windbreak to match tent, during the night the windbreak came down and ripped the tent
Any suggestions on what to put on the top of the poles so they are not sharp

Duct/gaffa tape? Electrical tape? Cork?------------- If you have a problem stressing you, sort it. If you can't, there's no point worrying about it coz it won't make a blind bit of difference!!!! Jules

If the windbreak is liable to blow down then it should not be left unattended. You must consider your neighbours' tents and caravans.

As Bernie says, your windbreak needs to be secure in the first place. It should be pegged down with guy-ropes.
If you drink a few bottles of wine you can use the corks for the tops, but please make sure it is secure.
